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.

Archeologists Discover a Palatial Complex at Palenque

Archeologists Discover a Palatial Complex at Palenque

Archaeologists working in Mexico’s Oaxaca Valley have uncovered a palatial complex at Palenque, a Maya city state that prospered in the seventh century. Excavations at the site have been ongoing since 1993. During the most recent project, the archeologists focused on excavations at the north end of the site, which is where they believed the ruler of the ancient empire had a home and business.
The recently completed work revealed the remains of the palace, which has been dated using associated radiocarbon samples as well as ceramics to the Late Formative period (300–100 BCE), the time period when archaic states began emerging in the region.
Dated to a time before the Aztecs, around 2,100 to 2,300 years ago, most researchers believe the civilization that lived in Oaxaca was among the earliest Mesoamerican states to exist. Elsa Redmond and Charles Spencer, archeologists from the American Museum of Natural History, discovered the site and suggest their findings support that theory.
Well preserved, the palace covered around 2,790 square meters and in addition to living space for the ruler and his family, business offices, a dining area, a staircase and an area where sacrifices were performed have been identified. Personal details, such as the cistern used for rainwater collection and a drain cut into the stone are still evident. The construction methods indicate that the building was designed in advance and then constructed all at once, which would have taken a tremendous amount of organization. Also, its sheer size demonstrates that the ruler had a large amount of manpower available.
A medium-sized site, Palenque is a lot smaller than large sites such as Chichen Itza, Tikal or Copán, however, it contains some of the Maya’s finest sculpture, architecture, and bas-relief carvings. Much of Palenque’s history has been reconstructed from the hieroglyphic inscriptions found on the numerous monuments, which has given historians a long, detailed record of Palenque’s ruling dynasty in the fifth century, as well as extensive information regarding the city-state’s rivalries with other states, including Tonina and Calakmul.
K’inich Janaab Pakal, also known as Pacal the Great, was Palenque’s most famous ruler. Pakal’s tomb was discovered and excavated in 1952 in the Temple of the Inscriptions. Measuring 60 meters wide, 27.2 meters tall and 42.5 meters deep, construction of the Temple of Inscriptions may have begun as early as 675, as a funerary monument. The temple’s main structure is home to the second longest glyphic text from the Maya world ever documented. The pyramid records around 180 years of city history, between the 4th and 12th K’atun. The largest stones, located at the top of the pyramid, weigh between 12 and 15 tons.
The El Palenque palace contains certain features, both architectural and organizational, that are similar to the royal palaces built by much later Mesoamerican states. The El Palenque palace complex is the oldest multi-use palace excavated in the Valley of Oaxaca to date.
This research has been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Oaxaca has some of the richest and strongest traditions in Mexico. If you go in July for the Guelaguetza festival, the whole city explodes. People from the surrounding villages come in their traditional costumes and perform dances at the Cerro del Fortín, a huge amphitheatre on a hill overlooking the city. Guelaguetza means “offering” and refers to the tradition – still alive and strong in rural communities – where if there is an event, everyone contributes, so they have these amazing parties.

Oaxacans are very creative. The area is famous for textiles. The boutique Los Baules de Juana Cata works directly with local artisans and sells beautiful huipiles (embroidered tunics). They can cost up to $1,000 but they take six months to make. There are more crafts on display at the Museo Textil de Oaxaca. I also love the Centro Cultural San Pablo (san-pablo.mx), a beautiful conversion of a 16th-century convent that preserves indigenous traditions. One of Mexico’s most famous artists, Francisco Toledo, is a Oaxacan, who has lent his support to several cultural projects. He designed a stained-glass panel for the San Pablo centre.
Oaxaca’s famed creativity extends to the food scene. The state has the most diverse and the rarest varieties of corn in the entire country and a lot of restaurants focus on traditional recipes. At Itanoní, everything is made from corn. It does amazing tortillas rolled with a whole hoja santa leaf and filled with salsa and bean purée. I love La Teca, too, which is in the chef’s own home. She specialises in local dishes – the mole is delicious.

If you really want to eat like a local you have to try insects. Grasshoppers, agave worms and ants are all popular and sold everywhere, from street stalls to expensive restaurants. Chapulines (grasshoppers) have a very distinctive flavour. I love the small ones in guacamole; and the grasshopper quesadillas at La Popular restaurant are really tasty. Escamoles, or ants’ eggs, are a local speciality too – fried in garlic and butter.
Have a tejate for breakfast and you won’t be hungry for seven hours. It’s the drink of the ancients, made from corn, cacao, cinnamon and mamey fruit and served in a bowl. You’ll find it in any of the markets. The biggest and best-known market in town is 20 de Noviembre. There’s a long row of barbecue stands where you order meat by the kilo and they grill it for you. Then women come along and sell you tortillas or guacamole to go with it.

I live in Mexico City but travel to Oaxaca 12-13 times a year to visit mezcal producers. Unlike in the capital, everything in Oaxaca city is in walking distance. One of my favourite places is the Jardín Etnobotánico. All the plants are from Oaxaca and there are cactus and agave plants saved from development sites. Outside the city, the ancient Zapotec site of Mitla is a very special place that’s not well-known. It’s made up of rectangular buildings, not pyramids, and is famed for its intricate mosaics and stone carvings.

Mezcal is everything tequila is not. Tequila is industrialised. Jose Cuervo can produce up to 3 million litres a month. We sometimes have problems producing 1,500 litres a month because everything is done manually. The agave is still ground by millstones operated by horses. Tequila is made from one type of agave but mezcal uses 23 varieties, so there are many different flavours. Because it’s organic and the fermentation is natural, you can drink more of it without being intoxicated. One of the best places to try it is Los Amantes, the oldest mezcalaría in Oaxaca city. The owner is a famous artist who used to run one of the best clubs in Oaxaca. Spend a few hours there and test the theory that mezcal gets you high, not drunk.
