IN TOTONAC TERRITORY

Here's another Mesoamerican settlement large ancient times with which the world has. It is not just the presentation of a group of individuals established in a remote jungle location unknown to the old continent, but of immense significance for human settlement for all.
It has always been well thought out and was recorded in many historical documents Mesoamerican cultures were simply tribes scattered everywhere without customs or life processes with their own identity and related languages. The latest discoveries and even earlier and notes show the opposite. It was the work of those who came to establish a culture obsolete and failed in other places which found no viable exit rather than its discredited and undeserved Catholic religion, which do exist documents subhuman filth and backwardness in the wandering and large segments of the population moved hopelessly installed guilt, fear and surprisingly bloody reprimands and authorized by the ecclesiastical authorities.
The Totonac territory is another example of the grandeur and creativity of a group of similar beings who emigrated from geographical locations, but with a world view of life is worthy to be considered, studied and assimilated into a world so lost and disoriented as who lived in the Europe of the Roman Empire or of the people called barbarians, or a little later in the very Middle Ages. For that, or something very similar, is precisely what the modern world lives, turning to install so hopeless in the guilt, fear and financial penalties for all peoples of the world. Would require only that we could conquer another civilization on another planet in the solar system and who commit the same atrocity, calamity and outrage with beings from other parts bringing them about us as something to be learned. Sure, and this, install it on their culture for us to consider better or superior to them.
Mesoamerican cultures were counted and if a thread that sisters and identified with each other without ever making them prey to any of the degree of extinction, is a task of this blog, in this part which we now turn over the territories of our ancestors, trying to provide not only in writing but face graphics and the greatness of a human being different from the European and world view of life much more complete and finished in many duties which the same cultures of the old continent, while recognize that we are all the same and similar points we left and did not achieve the development we need until we recognize that no one is outside, above or below while we are immersed in the same planet.
Much has been said that in times like some were more advanced than others and that's a lie, there are no grounds for comparison, just about perceptions and different worldviews grounded in diametrically opposed philosophical concepts: Never Christ (which is have many doubts about its existence) can represent more than the sun, and the fact that claims to have discovered here is not the metals or their mergers or the wheel itself, can any of this mean supremacy over each other. He had the concept of the circle and there are as shown in the schedules produced in huge and precious stones that frame the same circularity or ball games also reveal similar situations. So it's a very different perception because it is the man who has to make efforts so that things are worth and not abuse animals because there are the wheels, as the Flames and South American territories Yak always there for other purposes , but we should ask where they came from so many beautiful buildings, beautiful, lovely and amazing pyramids developed and built by hand and with the efforts of all to make offerings to their gods, not to the dead as he did in Egypt: Pyramids burial Fearing further. Our Mesoamerican races belonging to the whole world worshiped the life, death ever and is only being present in these majestic places of beautiful buildings to know it was an honor to die building and building towards the deities.
The common thread of these ancient settlements and repeated in each of the areas we visited is the presence of a feathered serpent that unites everyone in your greatness. Pyramids are pointing at each moment the worship of nature, which indicate compliance with these insignificant beings to the majesty of the universe, and then mentions from those of reptilian mutation fused to a bird that is a fundamental idea of ​​the transformation of nature, it was applied to their lives and buildings, not to include a series of glyphs that let them interact, live and have commercial activities among all Where then could take that were less than the infirm and syphilitic European conquerors, but would have been themselves who by their mental distortions came to burn all the manuscripts and relics that point to the greatness and the development of these huge sister cultures that they could not be explained by having confused and sickly minds attached to material desires? Rather it was the abuse of technology, the use of weapons and ignorance, which buried the knowledge and immense contributions of our ancestors and the ancestors of all, because we must understand once and for all, that we are all brothers always .
We should see the Pyramid of the Niches at El Tajin, to give even an idea of ​​the intellectual immensity may be required to build a building of this magnitude and the immense beauty. It would also feel very proud that the territory had settlements Teotihuacan where more than 400,000 people most orderly and disciplined under a theocratic government that the brothers and not divided. We'll talk at the time of Palenque, Xochicalco, the very Teotihuacan, and you will witness the pride we all feel for having to all worthy representatives of the human civilization of the sizes that these huge creatures were founders of the Mayan, Totonac territory and other territories that Mesoamerica has within its content. We can not rule in any way Tulum and Tikal in Guatemala far Never! the immensity of Machu Pichu of these vast Incas. Prepare then to make the presentation worthy of our ancestors Totonac territory, relatives and siblings of all.
Kgalhen! (Welcome Totonac language)WILA MINCHICA which means you in your house (this idea speaks of the brotherhood), and the house was built in the post-classic period dating from about 800 AD, established in the Gulf of Mexico and that is precisely the territory of the Totonac ethnic group, considered by UNESCO as intangible heritage of humanity. This culture was in force at the arrival of Spanish conquistadors. Sociologically and politically organized themselves into dominions, the most important were Cempoala Misantla and Zacatlan. The ruling class was assisted by counselors and priests were high and that took care of the worship of the gods - Xipe Totec, Quetzalcoatl (Feathered Serpent), and Mictlantecuhtli Tlazoltéotl-and kept the records in the codices to make astronomical observations (same as the Maya, Zapotec and Teotihuacan) and calendar calculations. That led to the dates of the official ceremonies, festivals and human sacrifice.
The development of this culture also included an economic organization and the establishment of well-planned cities, built and organized. Its economy is based primarily on agriculture. They had a highly sophisticated irrigation system that greatly increased food production and everything related to cotton, textiles and vanilla. Fine ceramics were produced in Quiahuiztlan and the Isle of Sacrifices, now Veracruz.
The planning and organization of these cities especially of Tajin, covering an extensive area of ​​approximately 10 km2, is the Pyramid of the Niches, unique building in Mesoamerica, were planned and organized enough to capture rainwater directly from the roofs to be stored in huge tanks and then drive to the temples and houses by means of aqueducts and pipes made of masonry. These works and others give a rough idea of ​​the development of Totonac culture.
Returning to the Pyramid of the Niches, we might add that the geometry and balance are of great delicacy and impact at first sight. The commission consists of seven levels and facade facing east conjugated with the 365 niches that are around. Note that these niches had at night, light emanating from wax and wicks which gave him a great boost to the construction. This pyramid is the most representative building of Tajin in whose area you can see more than 16 similarly beautiful buildings and beautiful. This is a large area that can be seen in the Plaza del Arroyo, the 17 ball games (Like the same ball game the Mayan, Zapotec and Teotihuacan amongst others), the temple area and the area's housing governors and other members of this extraordinary culture.
As a final point add that this culture is the holder of a ritual that includes air, music and movement, involving five dancers, who are known as Papantla flying Indians of which four are flying and a the Caporal. The 5 elements creators of life: water, earth, wind and fire, and center the Sun ("Chichini"). In the "Flying Dance" is invoked at four corners of the universe seeking the fertility of Mother Earth (For the record, not worship him nor Lord, nor Christ, nor the nonexistent God), according to this dance with the worldview Totonac, the sky is a male deity with the essence of fire, and earth is a goddess whose essence is water, and the combination of both gives life (nothing to do with believing in gods vanished and barbados evil of the Pentateuch which are wonderful favors waiting.)
This dance is performed on a platform mounted on a pole about 30 feet high, which installed the 5 flying, it plays the flute and drum playing different tunes, in order to please the gods and obtain from them the protection for those who will perform the ceremony risky and dangerous. On the heights the foreman goes to the center, standing, while the other four flyers are thrown into the void by spinning platform, evoking the sun and its light fertilizing life. With a mystical meaning, the flyers down to earth bearing 13 laps each, ie the four give 52 turns before hitting the ground, and this is equivalent to the number of years of Mesoamerican cycle. After descending the four flyers, the foreman who plays Sun descends attached to a string of other flying personifying the sun than the earth fertile.
