Download or read book Ritual, Identity, and the Mayan Diaspora written by Nancy J. Wellmeier and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1998 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the lives and the continuing ritual traditions of the Mayas who live in the United States. Focusing on a predominantly Maya town in rural Florida, it shows how members of this ancient Central American civilization use their religious tradition to maintain their ethnic identity in an unfamiliar environment. Bringing together studies of Mesoamerican fiesta or cargo systems, religious ritual and migration studies, this interdisciplinary work describes the religious traditions of indigenous Guatemala, the crisis migration of the 1980s, and the Mayas' daily life in the United States, including Maya women's reflections on their new challenges. The book is unique in its focus on the transfer of the fiesta cycle to the diaspora and its analysis of the behind-the-scenes aspects of ritual. The rise of leadership, contested interpretations of ethnic identity, choices about symbolic representation, and maintenance of ties to villages of origin all take place in the context of organizing public ritual events. Through these strategies, the Maya people not only cope materially and spiritually with the chaotic experience of uprootedness, but find ways to strengthen their unique identity. Bibliography. Index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As portals to the supernatural realm that creates and animates the universe, caves have always been held sacred by the peoples of Mesoamerica. From ancient times to the present, Mesoamericans have made pilgrimages to caves for ceremonies ranging from rituals of passage to petitions for rain and a plentiful harvest. So important were caves to the pre-Hispanic peoples that they are mentioned in Maya hieroglyphic writing and portrayed in the Central Mexican and Oaxacan pictorial codices. Many ancient settlements were located in proximity to caves. This volume gathers papers from twenty prominent Mesoamerican archaeologists, linguists, and ethnographers to present a state-of-the-art survey of ritual cave use in Mesoamerica from Pre-Columbian times to the present. Organized geographically, the book examines cave use in Central Mexico, Oaxaca, and the Maya region. Some reports present detailed site studies, while others offer new theoretical understandings of cave rituals. As a whole, the collection validates cave study as the cutting edge of scientific investigation of indigenous ritual and belief. It confirms that the indigenous religious system of Mesoamerica was and still is much more terrestrially focused that has been generally appreciated.

Download or read book The Bioarchaeology of Artificial Cranial Modifications written by Vera Tiesler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The artificial shaping of the skull vault of infants expresses fundamental aspects of crafted beauty, of identity, status and gender in a way no other body practice does. Combining different sources of information, this volume contributes new interpretations on Mesoamerican head shaping traditions. Here, the head with its outer insignia was commonly used as a metaphor for designating the “self” and personhood and, as part of the body, served as a model for the indigenous universe. Analogously, the outer “looks” of the head and its anatomical constituents epitomized deeply embedded worldviews and longstanding traditions. It is in this sense that this book explores both the quotidian roles and long-standing ideological connotations of cultural head modifications in Mesoamerica and beyond, setting new standards in the discussion of the scope, caveats, and future directions involved in this study. The systematic examination of Mesoamerican skeletal series fosters an explained review of indigenous cultural history through the lens of emblematic head models with their nuanced undercurrents of religious identity and ethnicity, social organization and dynamic cultural shift. The embodied expressions of change are explored in different geocultural settings and epochs, being most visible in the centuries surrounding the Maya collapse and following the cultural clash implied by the European conquest. These glimpses on the Mesoamerican past through head practices are novel, as is the general treatment of methodology and theoretical frames. Although it is anchored in physical anthropology and archaeology (specifically bioarchaeology), this volume also integrates knowledge derived from anatomy and human physiology, historical and iconographic sources, linguistics (polisemia) and ethnography. The scope of this work is rounded up by the transcription and interpretation of the many colonial eye witness accounts on indigenous head treatments in Mesoamerica and beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente trabajo tiene la intención de abrir los espacios necesarios para reflexionar sobre el estatus disciplinario de la arqueología en la actualidad. Es evidente que, con el desarrollo de la arqueología, cambian no solo sus técnicas de investigación, sino también sus objetivos. Mediante esas transformaciones, nuestra disciplina se hace cada vez más consciente de los valores y juicios que, generados por los intereses socioeconómicos o político-culturales, llegan a afectar el análisis científico. Este trabajo trata de evidenciar una serie de problemas que hasta los últimos años no han sido considerados objeto de una investigación arqueológica seria. La pregunta fundamental de la presente investigación es: ¿Tenemos derecho, como arqueólogos, a contribuir a la destrucción de otras prácticas culturales que utilizan como marcadores de identidad cultural los mismos vestigios materiales que son nuestro campo de estudio? ¿Son tan ciertas nuestras interpretaciones como para suprimir (de manera voluntaria o involuntaria) aquellas que no corresponden con nuestra lógica científica? ¿Acaso hemos pensado que al actuar de esta manera podemos perder la posibilidad de hacer diferentes interpretaciones del pasado y, además, diseminando nuestros valores y juicios culturales podemos ocasionar el saqueo del material arqueológico? Esta investigación buscará responder a estas preguntas, esperando despertar ciertas dudas en las cabezas de nuestros colegas sobre el estatus de la arqueología actual.
