#chichimeca guamare

[moonlit-void-to-the-far-unknown]

Finally learned I’m indigenous mexican from the chichimeca guamare people. So that’s fun, finally finding more about that side of my family, since I have only ever heard ‘well your great grandmother is Mexican and she named you’ legit I have like no contact with my bio dads side of the family for reasons of they uh…it’s a long complicated mess. But I can say all my cousins got the ‘Mexican’ look genetics wise and I got…white women.

But learning about the chichimeca have been…interesting but sad because my god I have found like the same 2 paragraphs about them on every free source. Like ‘pls…pls I just wanna know about my people. I just…it shouldn’t be this hard’

But yeah. Im mostly Scottish and weirdly Swedish/scandi, but I have stepped closer to my mexican ancestors by finally having a place they came from.

Now I just wish I didn’t have to pay to read about them?! Like for fuck sake why why….

Anyway…ignore me this is just ranting

But if anyone has any resources for reconnecting with your indigenous mexican people. I would appreciate it. If not it’s chill I’m gonna keep searching for info.

TONALLAN TLATOHCAYOTL. “.. son nuestros antepasados y parte de nuestras raíces etnicas, en lo que hoy es el Centro-Occidente y Norte de México, de los que heredamos costumbres y usos tan populares como el gusto por las frutas silvestres, la gran variedad de tunas, pitayas y pitajayas, la golosina de los mezquites y los guamuchiles a los que todavía por acá llamamos “guamaras” como eco de la tribu de los guamares; el apetito por las sabrosas raíces cocidas o asadas del camote del cerro, el chinchayote, la pulpa del maguey, el mezcal, amén del arte de pescar bagres o carpas en los ríos y arroyos, la pasión de cazar huilotas en los cerros o la afición de otros manjares de nómadas como el esquite, el pinole y el ponteduro, las tostadas o gorditas de maíz quebrado, las tacazotas o tacachotas y la desmedida sed de bebidas fermentadas como el tejuino, los pulques, los mezcales, charapes o vinos de tunas mansas”.

Song of the Day

So, I was on the phone && I fkn felt the shake... like earthquake small tremble. HOLY SHIEEEET!!! Good think my emergency kit is by my bed. Ugh.... fuck. God must be really angry at us. He’s drowning Texas && he’ll sink California. Oh well.... ok, moving on.

What shall I share today??? More indigenous music? Let us do that. I’m still stuck in the Mesoamerican region, I promise I’ll move toward Native Americans for the last few days && perhaps one South American group. Per Wikipedia:

The Chichimeca peoples were primarily of eight nations that spoke different languages. As the Spaniards worked towards consolidating the rule of New Spain over the indigenous peoples during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Chichimecan nations resisted fiercely. A number of native groups of the region allied with the Spanish. The most long-lasting of these conflicts (1550–91) was the Chichimeca War, resulting in the defeat of the Spanish Empire and a decisive victory for the Chichimeca Confederation.

Many of the peoples known broadly as Chichimeca are virtually unknown today; few descriptions recorded their names and they seem to have been absorbed into mestizo culture or into other indigenous ethnic groups. For example, virtually nothing is known about the peoples referred to as the Guachichil, Caxcan, Zacateco, Tecuexe, or Guamare. Others, such as the Opata or Eudeve, are well described in records but extinct as a people.

Still, other Chichimec peoples maintain separate identities into the present day, for example, the Otomi, Chichimeca Jonaz, Cora, Huichol, Pame, Yaqui, Mayo, O'odham and the Tepehuan peoples.

They appear to be a hunter-gatherer people that don’t necessarily follow any deities like their counterparts. I’m assuming that their dances or art was personal && embedded in their dress. Here is a dance I found wherein you the different attire they were (in comparison to Aztecs). It’s not as elaborate && it’s quite light && easy for them as semi-nomadic people. Enjoy!

Los pueblos indígenas en San Luis Potosí

HUASTECOS

Los huastecos son un pueblo indígena descendiente de los mayas que habita en los estados mexicanos de San Luis Potosí. Los huastecos participaron fervientemente en la guerra de independencia, más como una manera de protestar ante los agravios y despojos de tierras por parte de los españoles. Después de consumada la independencia, se enfrentaron a nuevas leyes agrarias desfavorables para las comunidades y a la expedición de las leyes de desamortización de bienes corporativos. La defensa de sus tierras implicó bastas rebeliones, generalizándose las luchas campesinas durante los últimos 20 años del siglo XIX y en la primera década del siglo XX.

PAMES

Los pames son un grupo indígena del centro de México que hoy en día vive en el estado de San Luis Potosí. Ellos se hacen llamar Xiʔúi. Los pames hablaban el idioma pame, una lengua otomangueana del grupo oto-pame, que aún sobrevive actualmente.

Los pames intervinieron en la Guerra Chichimeca. Al inicio del conflicto fueron descritos como los más pacíficos de todas las "naciones" conocidas bajo el nombre genérico de chichimecas.1​ Habitaban en las localidades de Acámbaro, Orirapúndaro, Ucareo, Tulimán, San Pedro, Parrón, Sinquía, Sichú, Izmiquilpan y Meztitlán. Compartieron territorio al oeste con los guachichiles y guamares, así como con los otomíes en Jilotepec y con los purépechas en Michoacán.

En la década de 1570, sus actividades fueron más hostiles, pues se reportaron secuestros y asesinatos a españoles. Básicamente eran nómadas, su cultura religiosa era semejante a la de los otomíes; por ello, se los consideraba más avanzados que los guamares, guachichiles y zacatecos.

NAHUAS

Los nahuas son un grupo de pueblos nativos de Mesoamérica, al que pertenecen los mexicas y otros pueblos antiguos de Anáhuac que tenían en común la lengua náhuatl. El término mexicano es su autodenominación posterior a la fundación de México, así como mexicanero (en el estado de Durango). Su nexo principal era su lengua, el náhuatl o mexicano (en el sur de Mesoamérica) o nahuat (en algunas regiones costeras), además de grandes similitudes en su religión y cosmovisión.

Los Nahuas o Naua arribaron al centro de México, y por tanto a tierras que posteriormente formarían parte del Estado de México, después de los chichimecas y constituyeron, como anota Clavijero, siete tribus de una misma nación... los Xochimilcas, Chalcas, Tepanecas, Acolhuas, Tlahuicas, Tlaxcaltecas y Aztecas (Mexicas). Edificaron un impresionante poder económico, administrativo y guerrero en todo el valle de México que perduró hasta la llegada de los conquistadores españoles, quienes impusieron a los pueblos indios una nueva forma de vida y de organización de la sociedad, basada en la explotación de los recursos humanos y naturales, característicos del colonia je.

Historia de Lagos de Moreno

Conozca algo de la Historia de Lagos de Moreno

De acuerdo a los estudios realizados por los historiadores a la Gran Chichimeca, en ella se encontraban diversas familias prehispánicas; siendo las principales: zacatecos, cazcanes, tecuexes y guachichiles. A esta última familia pertenecían los “guamares”; también conocidos como chichimecas blancos – no por la pigmentación de la piel sino por vivir entre calichales y tierras salitrozas – o…
