Markets are an
integral part of life for the Maya. It is were most food is bought. It
is where a family will sell the extra tomatoes they have. It is where
women will buy their cortes [traditional skirts], the cooking
pots and most other household items. It is one place where friends and
neighbors will meet and talk. Many years ago in Santiago Atitlán there
used to be a night market lit by candlelight. Although it no longer
exists it captured the fancy of a few of the early Tz'utuhil artists. It
has been one of the most popular themes with the artists and the
tourists ever since. |
