We see this reflected in the archetypal king of the archetypal civilized kingdom: Quetzalcoatl of Tollan.” So writes Maarten Jansen and Gabina Aurora Pérez Jiménez at the end of the first chapter in the long-awaited, innovative, and significant Encounter with the Plumed Serpent: Drama and Power in the Heart of Mesoamerica. The Mesoamerican Worlds series has two other books whose titles include the famed name of Quetzalcoatl: Davíd Carrasco’s Quetzalcoatl and the Irony of Empire: Myths and Prophecies in the Aztec Tradition, Revised Edition and H. B. Nicholson’s classic study Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl: The Once and Future Lord of the Toltecs. Jansen and Pérez Jiménez’s Encounter with the Plumed Serpent adds a new complexity and richness to our understanding of Mesoamerica’s widespread Plumed Serpent tradition. The authors use ix PFOREREFACEWORD archaeological, iconographical, historical, and mythical evidence but also include contemporary ethnographic insights gleaned from years of working with indigenous peoples. Focusing intensely on the historical narratives of the Ñuu Dzaui peoples (the name given the Mixtecs by the Nahuas), Jansen and Pérez Jiménez describe the complex relationships among creator deities, rulers, warriors, place-names, and sacred storytelling not only to illuminate Quetzalcoatl’s past significance as archetypal ruler, priest, and warrior but also to explain some of his living legacies today. As they mention in the preface, the authors strive to carry forward the “vision of a sovereign people with their own history and culture, with values and with projects for the future” by taking us deeper into the dynastic discourses, religious symbolisms, and political traditions of these Mesoamerican peoples than other scholars have done previously. The authors present these people as historical and mythical; filled with profound attachments to the material conditions of their towns, lands, and cities; and animated by extraordinary imaginations, intellectual commitments, and creative ways of expressing them. It is by focusing on this potent combination, in part, that we are able to grasp new understandings of how religious convictions and political ideology combined to make the Plumed Serpent the focal point of many creative aspects of Mesoamerican history. Additionally, the thorough introduction explicates the nature of the primary evidence, linkages and disjunctions between codices, and the nature of kingships and gods in Mesoamerican traditions. The authors also confront us with the need to give back to these people and their documents their original names. We have eagerly looked forward to sharing the innovative work of Maarten Jansen with our readers, and here it is deeply enriched by the companion voice of Gabina Aurora Pérez Jiménez. As was prophesied long ago, the Plumed Serpent has returned yet again, this time through the research and writings of Jansen and Pérez Jiménez. DAVÍD CARRASCO AND EDUARDO MATOS MOCTEZUMA GENERAL EDITORS x Preface Preface N 1975 WE FIRST VISITED THE SACRED VALLEY OF YUTSA TOHON, SANTIAGO IApoala, in the Mixteca Alta (state of Oaxaca, Mexico)—a small village surrounded by steep cliffs on two sides and a precipice on the third, offering an overwhelming view of the blue mountain ranges behind the Cuicatec Cañada. Our journey was motivated by statements in ancient pictorial manuscripts and in reports by Spanish monks that this had been the place of origin of the dynasties that ruled Ñuu Dzaui, the “Nation of the Rain God”—the Mixtec people, the Mixtec land—in the centuries before the Spanish invasion. Soon, with the help and orientation of knowledgeable people like Don Raúl García, Don Prisciliano Alvarado, Doña Otilia Alvarado, Don Macario López, and many more, we started to see the connection: the representations in the manuscripts coincided with the landscape that surrounded us, and in that landscape the legends from ancient times fused with those of the present. To the east, overlooking the precipice, rises the peak of Kaua Kaandiui, the xi PREFACE Mountain of Heaven, where in the time of darkness and mystery the primor- dial Ancestors had manifested themselves and built their home. From here their son and pupil, the Plumed Serpent, Lord 9 Wind, had come down to bring light and life to the world. At the other end of the valley, where the two rock faces meet and leave only a narrow passage, is the Cave of the Serpent (Yaui Koo Maa), a dark and ancient place of ceremony. A huge stalagmite inside is called the “Bishop,” a venerated image: people go to him to ask a favor. Another story tells us that when the sun rose for the first time, a princess kept prisoner in this cave turned into stone in the center of the small subterranean pond. The waters that flow from her body feed the brook that gave its name to the town, the Yutsa Tohon, “River that pulls out and drags along” or the “Storytelling River”; it runs through the valley and forms a beautiful cascade where it plunges down. On its bank once stood the huge pochote tree that covered the entire valley with its shade and gave birth to the First Lords and Ladies, who, following the example of the Plumed Serpent and carrying his Sacred Bundle, became the founders of the Ñuu Dzaui kingdoms.

  • Mexico's Indigenous and Folk Art Comes to Chapala
    Mexico’s indigenous and folk art comes to Chapala Each year Experience Mex‐ECO Tours promotes a trip which we call the ‘Chapala Artisan Fair’, but this is much more than just a shopping trip; so what’s it really all about? The Feria Maestros del Arte (Masters of Art Fair) is the name given to this annual event in Chapala, and also the name of the non‐profit organization which puts in an incredible amount of work to make it happen. In 2002 an amazing lady called Marianne Carlson came up with the idea of bringing some of the artists and artisans she came across in rural Mexico to Ajijic to sell their high quality traditional work. After a successful first fair, with 13 artists being very well received by the public, Marianne decided to make this an annual event. Providing an outlet for traditional Mexican artists and artisans to sell their work, the Feria Maestros del Arte has provided many families with the opportunity to continue creating Experience Mex‐ECO Tours S.A. de C.V. | www.mex‐ecotours.com | info@mex‐ecotours.com their important cultural representations by allowing them to pursue this as a career, rather than seeking alternative employment. Here is their mission as a non‐profit organization: “To preserve and promote Mexican indigenous and folk art. We help preserve these art forms and the culture that produces them by providing the artists a venue to sell their work to galleries, collectors, museums and corporations. We promote regional and international awareness to the value of these endangered arts.” The efforts made by the Feria committee and its many volunteers mean that the artists and artisans not only have a chance to generate more income in a few days than they may otherwise generate in a year, but also the chance to be recognized by buyers and collectors from around the world.

  • Elizabeth and Harold Hinds
    Elizabeth and Harold Hinds Imholte Hall, University of Minnesota-Morris Imholte Hall, Main Floor Walk-in Display Huichol yarn art. This piece depicts a ceiba tree with a bird. Beside it a man shoots a bow and arrow. Other insect- like forms fly about. These hallucinatory images are traditional for the Huicholes, who used peyote to bring on visions. Originally a traditional art form, yarn paintings became popular as tourist art. This piece was purchased at Tlaquepaque, a town just outside of Guadalajara, in the 1970’s. The story on the back reads: Los Huicholes no conocían el maíz en tiempos antiguos. Una vez un niño se enteró de que había gente allende las montañas “que tienen algo que llaman maíz,” y fue en su busaca. En camino se encontró con un grupo de hombres que le dijeron que (h)iba a comprar maíz y el, confiando, les acompañó. Lo que no sabía es que esa gente eran en realidad hormigas (los insectos en esta ilustración). La Gente Hormiga que ro(b)e todo lo que encuentra. Al llegar la madrugada se despertó. Bajo un gran pino y descubrió que le habían roido (robado) toda la ropa, el cabello e inclusive las cejas, y que solamente le quedaban el arco y las flechas. Oyó que un pájaro se pasaba en un árbol, y le apuntó con una flecha, pues tenía hambre. El pájaro le reveló que era Tatey Kukurú Uimári, Nuestra Madre Paloma Muchacha, la Madre del Maíz. Le dijo que siguiera a su casa, donde le daría maíz. Translation: The Huichol people didn’t know about maize in ancient times.
