  • Mexico's Christmas Gifts to the Philippines ROSES & THORNS by Alejandro R
    Mexico's Christmas gifts to the Philippines ROSES & THORNS By Alejandro R. Roces (The Philippine Star) Updated December 19, 2009 12:00 AM MANILA, DECEMBER 19, 2009 (STAR) ROSES & THORNS By Alejandro R. Roces We have many old Christmas symbols. Probably the oldest is the Nativity scene, known by its Spanish name belen, or Bethlehem. This is a tradition that is believed to have originated way back in 1223 when St. Francis celebrated Christmas by depicting the Nativity scene complete with live donkey, sheep and ox. By the 17th century, the custom reached Spain, and a century later it was introduced in Mexico from where it was brought to the Philippines. Originally, the only human figures in the belen were the Holy Couple and the Holy Infant. The Three Kings were added during the Epiphany. Like the belen some of our prominent Christmas customs either filtered through or originated in Mexico. The Christmas tree tradition started in the Philippines only during the American colonial rule in the country. But even before that we had a botanical symbol of Christmas — the Flor de la Noche Buena (flower of Christmas Eve), a plant that was introduced here from Mexico through the galleon trade. The Aztecs called them Cuetlaxochitle and used their bracts or modified leaves to make a reddish dye. Originally, we knew it by the name of pascua; but around the world it is commonly known as the poinsettia. There are two legends that we know behind the pascua. One goes that a girl who was separated from her lover died of grief on Christmas Eve.

    Here Comes SANTA FE Chile wreaths, parades by candlelight, enchiladas two ways: the holiday season in New Mexico’s capital is unlike anywhere else.

Opposite: Lili and Lucien Dale pick out ristras, wreaths made with chiles, a Santa Fe tradition. www.storemags.com & www.fantamag.com A view of the Inn and Spa at Loretto, in the center of town. Below: Chef Charles Dale, the maestro behind the Encantado resort’s Southwestern-inspired Terra restaurant. IT IS THE second week of December, and my husband, Brooke, and I are lying in bed at Encantado, the year-old Auberge re- sort just outside Santa Fe, New Mexico, feeling like children getting an early Christmas present. During the night, a fine layer of fluffy snow has blanketed the Sangre de Cristo and Jemez mountains, adding a magical sparkle to the fifty-seven- acre former ranch in the upscale suburb of Tesuque. Not that snow is unheard of here, particularly around the holidays, when temperatures average a crisp forty-five degrees. It’s just that in the thirty years I have been visiting this New Mexican high desert, I’ve rarely seen powder on the swaths of brown sagebrush, nor have I spied a dark cloud hampering those end- less turquoise skies. In the past, at the end of our eight-hour drive to Santa Fe from our home in Aspen, Brooke and I made a habit of stopping at Ten Thousand Waves, a slightly funky Japanese-style spa with private outdoor hot tubs and unusual treatments, includ- ing a mask made of sanitized nightingale droppings.

At a regular and duly called meeting on March 14, 2016, the Tribal Council of the YDSP authorized me to prepare and transmit this letter opposing federal acknowledgment of the "Piro/Manso/Tiwa Indian Tribe of the Pueblo of San Juan de Guadalupe," more commonly known by the YDSP as the Tortugas community of Las Cruces, New Mexico. This letter is a restatement of and supplements my previous letter of March 4, 2009 to Director R. Lee Fleming. It is not intended to replace the previous letter. In the first instance the previous letter sought to disprove that "Piro-Manso-Tiwa" group is an Indian tribe, and in the second to establish that if there is a tribe in the Las Cruces area, it is best understood as a satellite of YDSP. Though the second proposition not argued in this letter, that is still the position of YDSP.
