  • The Towns Op Lake Atitlan by Sol Tax
    THE TOWNS OP LAKE ATITLAN BY SOL TAX MICROFILM COLLECTION OP MANUSCRIPTS ON MIDDLE AMERICAN CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY No. 13 UNIVERSITY OP CHICAGO LIBRARY CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 1946 // INTRODUCTION In October of 1936, the author and his wife settled In Panajaohel, on the north shore of Atitlan, to pursue investigations of the Indians of Guatemala undertaken by the Carnegie Institution of Washington. The field season, which lasted eight months, was to be devoted to the study of several of the towns of the lake. With the aid of a fast launch, we began periodic visits to several of the towns, especially Santa Catarina Palop6 and San Marcos la laguna. Before the season was over, we were joined by Dr. Manuel J. Andrade, who was undertaking a linguistic survey of th^&ame communities, and for part of the time, we travelled together. His notes on the lake towns are published in this microfilm collection (No. 11). Also during the season we were joined by Dr. Lila M. O'Neale, who undertook a study of the textiles of Highland Guatemala. The results of her studies are published as, "Textiles of Highland Guatemala", Ca-'negir Institution of Washington. Publication 567. 1945. In succeeding years, the authors made a thorough study of the town of Panajachel itself, the results of which are to be printed; SeRor Juan Rosales made a thorough study of the town of San Pedro la laguna, the results of which are also publishedjby the Guatemalan government; and Dr. Robert Redfield spent considerable time in the town of San Antonio Palopo and the ladino community of Agua Escondida of the same municipio.

  • CHAPTER 7: LAKE ATITLAN (House of Shadows Or Dark House)
    CHAPTER 7: LAKE ATITLAN (House of Shadows or Dark House) We learn from the Popol-Vuh, sacred book of the Quiches, that the applicants for initiation to the mysteries were made to cross two rivers, one of mud, the other of blood, before they reached the four roads that led to the place where the priests awaited them. The crossing of these rivers was full of dangers that were to be avoided. Then they had to journey along the four roads, the white, the red, the green and the black, that led to where the council, composed of twelve veiled priests, and a wooden statue dressed and wearing ornaments as the priests, awaited them. When in presence of the council, they were told to salute the King; and the wooden statue was pointed out to them. This was to try their discernment. Then they had to salute each individual, giving his name or title without being told; after which they were asked to sit down on a certain seat. If, forgetting the respect due to the august assembly, they sat as invited, they soon had reason to regret their want of good breeding and proper preparation, for the seat, made of stone, was burning hot. Having modestly declined the invitation, they were conducted to the “Dark house,” where they had to pass the night, and submit to the second trial. Guards were placed all round, to prevent the candidates from holding intercourse with the outer world. Then a lighted torch of pine wood and a cigar were given to each.

  • Declaration of Atitlán, Guatemala
    DECLARATION OF ATITLÁN, GUATEMALA Indigenous Peoples’ Consultation on the Right to Food: A Global Consultation Atitlán, Sololá, Guatemala, April 17 - 19, 2002 We, representatives and traditional authorities of Indigenous Peoples, Nations, and organizations from 28 countries, gathered from all regions of the world, including farmers, hunters, gatherers, fishers, herders, and pastoralists, met in Panajachel, Sololá, at Lake Atitlán, Guatemala, on April 17–19, 2002, with the following objectives: 1. To learn about the hardships faced by Indigenous Peoples in food-related matters. 2. To define common elements among Indigenous Peoples: • To propose them to the States so that the States will implement the Right to Food in accordance with the aspirations of Indigenous Peoples; and, • To strengthen ties of cooperation among Indigenous Peoples. 3. To formulate a strategy based on the vision of Indigenous Peoples, with the objective of making proposals to the States and to the international community in order to overcome hardships in matters of Food Security and Food Sovereignty. We extend our deep appreciation to the Indigenous Peoples of Guatemala, particularly the Maya Kaqchikel People for their hospitality and generosity in hosting the various delegations attending this consultation. We are aware that in Guatemala, a situation exists of misery, extreme poverty, and death by starvation, day by day, of men, women, and children. This is reflected in the report from the First Indigenous Peoples’ National Conference on the Right to Food, held on April 5, 2002, in Guatemala City, which includes the following facts: that in a period of 2 weeks 41 persons died of starvation; that in 44% of Guatemala’s territory, people are living in extreme poverty and at high risk of death from starvation; the following Departments of Guatemala are listed in order of their degree of extreme poverty: San Marcos 86.66%, Totonicapán 85.62%, Quiché 86.66%, Huehuetenango 77.85%, Alta Verapaz 76.40%, Sololá 76.36%, Jalapa 72.59%, Jutiapa 63.88%; Santa Rosa 62.07%, and Quetzaltenango 60.67%.

    MULTIAGENCY EVALUATION OF THE RESPONSE TO THE EMERGENCY CREATED BY TROPICAL STORM STAN IN GUATEMALA Evaluation team: Dra. Rosa Maria Estrada Public health specialist - Leader of evaluation team Lic. Nicté Ramírez Public nutrition specialist Ing. Miguel Flores Water and sanitation specialist Ing. Wilson Castañeda National consultant Author: Dra. Rosa Maria Estrada de Zomet a April - 2006 Photos: Oxfam GB, CARE, CRS and Wilson Castañeda Summary In October 2005, Tropical Storm Stan struck Guatemala, causing severe landslides, mudslides and flooding and affecting nearly a half million people in over 1000 communities. Large areas of crops were destroyed, along with bridges and highways, complicating the delivery of humanitarian aid. This document is an evaluation of the activities carried out by CARE, CRS and Oxfam GB between October 2005 and February 2006 in response to this emergency, and of the level of coordination between those agencies and other actors within the framework of the ECB Project. The evaluation was carried out during March-April 2006 by external evaluators. This 3-page summary brings together key points from the evaluation of those activities and their impact, and summarizes the recommendations of the evaluation team. Readers of the electronic version of this document may follow hyperlinks to the relevant sections of the main report. CARE, CRS and Oxfam GB: Response and Impact • Health education was a key focus of agency health response, and resulted in use of sound health practices and recognition by families of common disease symptoms. Training local health promoters strengthened local capacity for continuing health education. • Social and psychological assistance was provided, with two agencies providing mental health care, an important component of disaster response.

    faLL 2010 | winter 2011 harvard review of Latin america guatemala legacies of violence editor’s letter ZocaloLegacies Hed of Violence26 pt Zocalo deck 14 point one line BY The diminutive indigenous woman in her bright embroidered blouse waited proudly for her grandson to receive his engineering degree. His mother, also dressed in a traditional flowery blouse—a huipil, took photos with a top-of-the-line digital camera. As each student in the small graduating class at Guatemala’s San Carlos University Engi- neering School briefly presented his thesis project, the grandson showed how water systems could both bring potable water and create recreational spaces for his hometown in rural Guatemala. Then Alejandro Valle Rosal praised another grandmother—the courageous journalist Irma Flaquer—in his acceptance speech, citing her as inspiration. She had been kidnapped and her voLume X no. 1 son—Alejandro’s father—had been killed when he was a toddler. My first book,Disappeared, David Rockefeller Center A Journalist Silenced, was about Alejandro’s grandmother. I hadn’t expected him to mention for Latin American Studies her when he received his degree. The silence had been broken. The legacies of violence were director slowly being overcome. Merilee S. Grindle After the graduation, Irma’s sister, Anabella Flaquer, and I went to see the Guatemalan Police associate director Archives (see Kate Doyle’s article, p. 10). Anabella lives in Miami, and this was the only chance Kathy Eckroad we would get to visit them. “I feel my sister is here,” she told me. “There is no silence here.” It was a day of many emotions.
