Mexico is a place of great contrasts where the superficial worldliness created by the hussel and bussel of the tourism coexisits with the antique city while the snowtops of the vulcanoes fade off into the distance towards the forests, the deserts and the tropical beaches. The chaotic megalopolis of Mexico City is only a one hour flight from Chipas, rich of natural resources, where the rebellious Indians joined in battle with the paramilitary forces supported by the party in power. Along the northern boundary of the inextricable heap of historic inheritance of Mexico mingles with the modern culture of California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.
The natural and human landscape of Mexico reflects the extraordinary history of this country, where a mix of Indian and Spanish elements can be found. All you need is just a few hours in Mexico to convince yourself that the so called “New World” is real ancient history. Despite the difficult colonial period and the rapid modernization, there are over 50 native ethnic groups, each one has there own language and still conserve the traditional way of life today.

TULUM

The Tulum coast, with it’s tall Castillo building sheer to the beach, was the first place that the Spanish noted. On March 3rd, 1517 three Spanish vessels reached the city and were joined by some maya.

Tulum was the place where the first battle between the maya and the Indians occured when the Europeans came and resolved all in favor of the invaders.

Tulum was located in a favorable area for trade between the Mexican plateau and central America.

Trade was carried out by sea near the Castillo. Goods such as honey, salt, fish, obsidian objects and quetzal feathers.

Tulum’s artistic expression reveals that it has had an influence come from far away regions, such as the Mixtech plateau of Oaxaca.

God, the one and only divinity, perhaps related to the honey and to the sun at sundown, is represented on many many buildings, found in the vertical niches above the entrances. It is aquestion of a mysterious figure, unique in the clasical maya art : you find this figure represented head down, with it’s legs open wide in the air, possessing a bird’s tail and wings.

Frescos representing the divinity, sea animals and snakes can be found in Tulum where you can obviously identify the mixteco influence. In a fresco with a black background you can see the goddess Ix Chel along with the god Chaac.
