The main theoretical assumption considered is that ‘counting’ is part of the human need to classify things to order life. Through an ethnography and review of historical documentation it is shown that, in addition to the decimal system used by Raramuri, there is a continuity of other ways of counting recorded in the 17th century and used by colonial Raramuri. Since the paper does not exhaust the subject it is necessary to continue observing other aspects of the social life at present, as well as to continue searching for historical data to broaden our knowledge about the processes that have institutionalized diverse knowledge such as the case of a Raramuri ethnomathematics.   Desde una perspectiva etnohistórica el presente artículo expone la forma en que los rarámuri -tarahumaras de México- actuales llevan a cabo la acción de ‘contar’ en aspectos culturales como el juego, el deporte, la ritualidad y el aprendizaje para la vida. El presupuesto teórico considerado es que ‘contar’ forma parte de la necesidad humana de clasificar las cosas para ordenar la vida. Mediante una etnografía y la revisión de documentación histórica se muestra que, además del sistema decimal empleado hoy por los rarámuri, existe una continuidad de formas de contar registradas en el siglo XVII y empleadas por los rarámuri coloniales. Como el artículo no agota el tema es necesario continuar observando otros aspectos de la vida social del presente, y también continuar la búsqueda de datos históricos que amplíen nuestro conocimiento sobre los procesos que han institucionalizado diversos saberes, como podría ser el caso de una etnomatemática rarámuri. application/pdf text/html http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/11448 10.34096/mace.v31i1.11448 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
