Oral tales in the Andes region, which are passed down in a symbolic language of lived through experiences containing socio-cognitive and logical structures of its own, accomplish a specific meaningful function in the Andes cultural universe with respect to the projection in the history of the community which produce the. These tales have their roots in the primeval culture of the Andes, and consequently, the corpus that we use our research allows us to re-establish a relationship between the Andes oral tradition and its correlated myth, as an outline of a general theory of the community which produce them. The tales chosen for this work fall within the classification of cosmogonic; they are about gods´ actions, the beginning of life and things, explanations of animal and plant forms, as well as some activities. They show a great proximity to myth. They contain reference to botanical, cosmological, customs and rituals data. In this report we propose to show that those tales are the carriers of messages and they constitute in themselves an act of self-assertion from the cultural community which produce them.
