Mexico-Nayarit-Santa Teresa del Nayar

"…Se veia el amanecer en el cielo. No habìa estrellas. Sòlo un cielo plomizo, gris, aùn no aclarado por la luminosidad del sol. Una luz parda. como si no fuera a comenzar el dia".
Pedro Paramo, Juan Rulfo

The Coras are small Indigenous people living in the Sierra Madre mountains of the Mexican state of Nayarit. The Coras still follow their traditions, protecting in a strong way their secret rites that anthropologists believe amongst the most interesting of Latin America for their syncretism. The ceremonies for the Holy Week are characterized by impressive ceremonies. The Judios paint their bodies symbolizing the Evil forces and struggles in the streets of the villages looking for Jesus.
