Nowadays, the country ranks high in the Hispanic American region in the trend of geographic development, but the practice of geography runs back to the very beginnings of the nation in the early sixteenth century. The pre-modern phase of that history has been aptly detailed by Acevedo Latorre A book entitled Summa de Geograf�a by Fern�ndez de Enciso was the first geographic work prepared in the New World shortly after the Discovery and then published in Spain in 1519. Since the onset of the colonial period, the Spanish chroniclers set forth in their writings a learned geographical tradition that was continued over the centuries both in the form of studies by individuals and as comprehensive reports by corporate expeditions in which geographic accounts were a substantive ingredient. Of the latter kind were the Fidalgo Expedition (1794-1810), which surveyed and mapped the Caribbean coast for the Crown, and simultaneously the Botanical Expedition, led by the well-known Spanish botanist Jos� Celestino Mutis. Mutis and his Creole associates carried out extensive research on vegetation and other natural resources of
