A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

La Semilla

En la actualidad, el temazcal continúa siendo un recinto que guarda ciertas características sagradas. Galinier menciona que los otomíes lo respetan y allí efectúan el baño familiar, donde consideran que se lava el cuerpo y el alma a la vez, y se purifica y revitaliza el aliento (16). Ichon da una interpretación del valor religioso y ceremonial del temazcal en la región totonaca, en donde parece ser la representación del mundo y del dominio del dueño del fuego. En este grupo, la diosa madre era Natsi’itni, equivalente a Temazcaltoci, abuela de los baños que podía también ser la divinidad del agua. El dueño del fuego o dueño del temazcal era Taqsjoyut. Su importancia era tan grande que antiguamente en el temazcal se verificaba el parto y se enterraba la placenta. En la actualidad, es aún el recinto de la purificación, del nacimiento o del renacimiento.
