Description

This episode takes you to the beautiful tropical paradise of Chiapas, the southernmost state of Mexico, bordering on the Central American nations.
We describe the costume and the dances of the Chamula tribe, especially the songs of El Jibali (the wild boar), El Rascapetate and Las Chiapanecas. We also mention the music from the instrument of the marimba, as we hear the accompaniment of the folklorico dancers at a live performance at an outdoor ampitheatre in San Antonio, Texas, during the Fiesta event in April.
