This paper shows that the solidity of scientific knowledge in Geomorphology consists, essentially, from the base provided by observation, resulting in laws and theories of greater scope, as the facts become more refined due to improved capacity of observation and experimentation. However, the very nature of observation is active and selective as there are "innate expectations" that unfold in a selection criteria, which culminates often in different perceptions about the same reality, is possible trace the guidelines that govern the structuring of geomorphological knowledge. The object of this work is to evidence that the production of the geomorphologic knowledge has been, invariant and historically, to a greater or lesser degree, associated with specific founding concepts, systematized into what has been called, so far, Geomorphological Triad.
