Sumario:This chapter aims to show the recurrence of impacts that have caused damages and detonated disasters in Cuyutlán, Colima, Mexico. The problem of disasters in Mexico and particular in Colima is presented on the basis of recent studies and explains key concepts. Through the method and techniques of disasters data were collected to form a chronologically ordered document and to show the affections suffered by the population between 1900 and 1959. The daily life is contextualized and the reasons for which the settlement continued. It is concluded that the cuyutlenses were vulnerable mainly to earthquakes, tsunamis and tropical cyclones. And it explains how the recurrent destructive events limiled the social capacities that violated the population, but at the same time it impelled it to be resilient to give continuity to its development.
