Description

Chapter II Ceremonias del nacimiento. In this recording she finishes the description of traditions after the birth of a child. Chapter XXV Rigoberta habla sobre su padre. Recuerdos de cuando fueron a trabajar a Ixcan. Here she describes the beginning of this chapter and certain moral lessons that have been passed on from grandparents to her father. Chapter III El Nahual. She begins to talk about this chapter and how the nahual becomes a part of each person in the community when they are born; it is usually an animal and this animal spirit is something they embrace throughout their lives.

*the second half of this recording continues to cut in and out with little coherence between different cuts and themes.
