This paper addresses the main constructions of meaning about the "physical culture" or "body culture" in Uruguay in 1900. It is taken as a source of inquiry a lecture by Alejandro Lamas, in 1911, where he presented the first school physical education curriculum. By the late nineteenth century, considerably weakened the Kantian contradiction between the terms "civilization" and "culture", so that the second designated a special or higher area of the first. Among the main findings we found that Lamas identifies the "physical culture" with one of the components of civilization.
