Emikhawulweni eseningizimu yensimu yethu, kunedolobha elisemfuleni futhi namanje elisehlathini elibizwa ngeTenosique, lapho sichithe khona izinsuku ezintathu ukuhlola ama-cenotes alo, ukuvakashela izindawo zalo zemivubukulo futhi sijabulise amehlo nezindlebe zethu ngomdanso waso ojwayelekile futhi onemibala iPocho Dance.
Ngesikhathi sihlala kuleli dolobha elihle laseTabasco, sisebenzise leli thuba ukuvakashela izindawo eziyinhloko ezikhangayo. Siya ezintabeni, lapho kunedolobha laseSanto Tomás. Lesi sifunda sinezindawo ezikhangayo zokuvakasha kwezokuvakasha, njengeSan Marcos lagoon, imihume yaseNa Choj, iCerro de la Ventana, indawo yemivubukulo yaseSanto Tomás, ne-Aktun Há neYa Ax Há cenotes.
Amanzi ayinki
Ukuze sihlole i-cenote ye-Ya Ax Há, sihlangane neqembu labathandi be-kayak futhi satshuza. Njengoba kwakuyimi ngedwa kuphela, ngehla ngamamitha angama-25 kuphela. Kulokho kujula amanzi aphenduka i-burgundy futhi bekungenakwenzeka ukubheka noma yini. Angikwazanga nokubona isandla sami phambi kwamehlo ami! Lo mbala ungenxa ye-tannic acid ebangelwa ukubola kwamaqabunga nezitshalo eziwela emanzini. Ngibe sengikhuphuka kancane, aze aphenduka amanzi aba luhlaza bengibona okuthile. Ukuze uhlole le cenote, olunye uhambo lapho kunesimo sezulu esomile kuzofanele ukuthi luhlelwe ngemishini ethe xaxa kanye nabatshuzi abaningi. Lesi sifunda sikulungele ukuhamba izintaba, ukuhamba ngebhayisikili ezintabeni futhi ungahlela nokugibela amahhashi uye endaweni yemivubukulo yasePiedras Negras, eGuatemala.
UPanjalé noPomoná
Ngakusasa savakashela izindawo zemivubukulo ezungeze iTenosique, phakathi kwayo iPanjalé evelele, osebeni lwe-Usumacinta, esiqongweni segquma, amakhilomitha ama-5 ngaphambi kokufika eTenosique. Yakhiwe ngamabhilidi amaningi ezikhathini ezedlule akha umbono, lapho amaMaya ayejwayele ukubuka izikebhe ezazidlula emanzini omfula.
Eduze, iPomoná (600 kuya ku-900 AD) yadlala indima ebalulekile ebudlelwaneni bezepolitiki nezomnotho esifundeni sayo, ngoba leli dolobha laliphakathi komnyango ongenhla we-Usumacinta neGuatemalan Petén, lapho abakhiqizi nabathengisi badlula khona amathafa asogwini. Ukwakhiwa kwalesi siza kubelana ngezici zePalenque futhi kwakhiwa ama-ensembles ayisithupha abalulekile, kanye nezindawo zokuhlala, asatshalaliswa cishe kumahektha angama-175. Kuphela elilodwa lala maqembu elihloliwe futhi lahlanganiswa, elenziwe ngezakhiwo eziyi-13 ezitholakala ezinhlangothini ezintathu zesikwele ezinecebo elingunxantathu. Ukubaluleka kwayo kulele ekunotheni kwemibhalo eqoshiwe etholakele, engasiniki nje ukulandelana kwezikhathi zokuthuthuka kwayo, kepha futhi inikezela ngolwazi ngababusi bayo nobudlelwano bayo namanye amadolobha angaleso sikhathi. Ine-museum esizeni.
Umdanso kaPochio
Ngakusasa, ekuseni, sahlangana neqembu labadansi nabaculi abavela e-Tenosique, abaphethe ukuhlela iDanza del Pocho ngesikhathi semikhosi yomkhosi. Ngalesi sikhathi, ngendlela ekhethekile, bebevunula futhi bayihlela kahle ukuze sifunde ngaleli siko. Mayelana nephathi yomkhosi, satshelwa ukuthi ususelwe ngasekupheleni kwekhulu le-19. Ngesikhathi sama-monterias kanye nama-chiclerías, ayephethwe ngabaseSpain bezinkampani ezithile ezifana neGuatemalan ne-Agua Azul. La maqembu ezigelekeqe zabasebenzi angene shí ehlathini laseTabasco nasendaweni yaseGuatemalan Petén ukuxhaphaza amahlathi ayigugu, njenge-mahogany, umsedari kanye nenhlaka evela esihlahleni sezinsini, ukubuya kwabo kuqondane phakathi nezinsuku imikhosi yomkhosi. Ngakho-ke, izakhamizi zalo masipala zinikezwe umsebenzi wokuhlela amaqembu amabili, uPalo Blanco kanye neLas Flores, ukuze balwele intonga kanye nomqhele we-carnival. Ngabo umkhosi omkhulu waqala. Kusukela lapho, iningi labantu selibambe iqhaza kulo mkhosi, ngomdanso wangaphambi kweSpanishi kaPochio.
Izembatho zezinyonga zifaka isifihla-buso sokhuni, isigqoko esihlotshiswe ngentende yesimbali nezimbali, ikapa, isiketi samaqabunga e-chestnut, amanye amaqabunga kabhanana we-soybean poplin kanye nama-chiquís (ukukhala okwenziwe ngegatsha elincane i-guarumo engenalutho nembewu). Ama-pochoveras agqoka isiketi esinezimbali, ihembe elimhlophe nesigqoko njengalezi ezilunyonga. Amahlosi imizimba yawo imbozwe ngodaka oluphuzi namabala amnyama, futhi afaka i-ocelot noma isikhumba se-jaguar emhlane. Izinsimbi ezihambisana nomdanso umtshingo, isigubhu, impempe kanye ne-chiquis. Umkhosi uphela ngokufa kukaputeni wamanje uPocho nokukhethwa kwalowo omusha, ophethe umsebenzi wokulondoloza umlilo ongcwele futhi okumele ahlele imikhosi, aqinisekise ukuthi kwenziwa yonke imikhuba yesiko.
Ngendlela, ukuqokwa kwenziwa ngendlela yokufuna ukwazi, abantu bahlangana ngokuxokozela phambi kwendlu yabakhethiweyo baphonsa amatshe, amabhodlela, amawolintshi nezinye izinto ophahleni. Umnikazi ufika emnyango bese ememezela ukuthi uyakwamukela ukukhokhiswa. Ekugcineni, njengoba kuqala ukuhwalala, bahlala endlini kakaputeni ophumayo ukuze babekhona "ekufeni" kwakhe, indawo ivele kube sengathi izixuku bezilinde. Kudliwa amaTamales, amaswidi, ikhofi kanye ne-brandy. Isigubhu kufanele sidlale ubusuku bonke, singapheli isikhashana. Lapho kuvela imisebe yokuqala (ngoLwesithathu Lomlotha), ukuthinta kuya ngokuya kuhamba kancane, kukhombisa ukuthi usizi seluqalile, oluhlala isikhashana. Lapho isigubhu sithule, uPocho useshonile. Abebehambele lo mcimbi bakhombisa ukudabuka okukhulu, bayagonana kahle, abanye bakhala ngobuhlungu, abanye ngoba iphelile iphathi kanti abanye ngenxa yomphumela wotshwala.
