Se describe la dinámica del aguador y su paulatina transformación en empleado repartidor de agua durante el proceso de implementación de la infraestructura hidráulica en la ciudad de Guadalajara. El desarrollo económico de la ciudad, su expansión territorial y el aumento demográfico frente a la escasez de agua obligaron a las autoridades a desarrollar proyectos hidráulicos con el fin de garantizar el abastecimiento de agua en diferentes periodos.
This paper offers a description, grounded on a critical assessment of the past, about the transformation of traditional water carriers to the modern-day water delivery employees. In doing so the technical procedures used to supply water to the Mexican city of Guadalajara are also examined. These mechanisms contributed to the transformation attending the expansion of the different areas of production, which prompted the city officials to implement several projects to guarantee the volume of water needed. This activity modified the various methods that were being used, which expanded from surface exploration to analyses of the feasibility of exploiting water aquifers to meet the urgent needs of a growing population and industry, all of which had a detrimental impact on the trade of the water carriers.
