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.

Scientists may finally know what caused the mysterious epidemic that killed millions of Aztecs

http://bgr.com/2018/01/17/aztec-mystery-epidemic-cocoliztli-caused-by-salmonella/

Scientists may finally know 

what caused the mysterious 

epidemic that killed millions 

of Aztecs


In the 16th century, an epidemic wiped out approximately 80% of the Aztec population in when Central and South America. The horrific epidemic known as “cocoliztli” was responsible for killing millions of people in Mexico, Guatemala, and even as far as Peru. Those infected would experience severe vomiting and even bleeding, and the death rate was believed to be among the highest in history. Despite the massive scale of this demographic catastrophe, the cause of the epidemic has remained a mystery for all these years.
Now, nearly 500 years later, scientists may have made a breakthrough discovery that finally reveals the pathogen responsible for the devastating epidemic.
A team of scientists believe they have solved the cocoliztli mystery that has puzzled mankind for centuries. The team analyzed skeletal remains in a mass grave filled with victims of the cocoliztli epidemic, and their findings have apparently confirmed what some experts have suspected for years: The cocoliztli epidemic that killed millions of Aztecs was seemingly caused by Salmonella.
The team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, Harvard University, and the Mexican National Institute of Anthropology and History say they found traces of Salmonella enterica Paratyphi C in ancient DNA extracted from the mass grave. Remains of the Salmonella strain were said to be present in a number of skeletons from the site, samples of which were recovered during a dig and returned to labs for analysis.
The researchers’ paper was published this week in the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution.
“Indigenous populations of the Americas experienced high mortality rates during the early contact period as a result of infectious diseases, many of which were introduced by Europeans,” the researchers wrote. “Most of the pathogenic agents that caused these outbreaks remain unknown. Through the introduction of a new metagenomic analysis tool called MALT, applied here to search for traces of ancient pathogen DNA, we were able to identify Salmonella enterica in individuals buried in an early contact era epidemic cemetery at Teposcolula-Yucundaa, Oaxaca in southern Mexico.”
They continued, “This cemetery is linked, based on historical and archaeological evidence, to the 1545–1550 CE epidemic that affected large parts of Mexico. Locally, this epidemic was known as ‘cocoliztli’, the pathogenic cause of which has been debated for more than a century. Here, we present genome-wide data from ten individuals for Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Paratyphi C, a bacterial cause of enteric fever. We propose that S. Paratyphi C be considered a strong candidate for the epidemic population decline during the 1545 cocoliztli outbreak at Teposcolula-Yucundaa.”
According to the scientists, this is the first direct evidence of a potential cause of the epidemic.

The intrepid journey from Pochutla to Oaxaca by bus or van
Hello there!
I'm trying to figure out my travel from the Mazunte/Zipolite area to Oaxaca City. I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the buses that run from Pochutla? Some friends recommended I book an ADO bus because it's far more pleasant than traveling by van. It's a very long journey though (9 hours), which is a little off-putting...
A couple of questions:
1) Has anyone taken the ADO overnight? Sleeping seems like a good way to pass the time. Is that crazy? Is it better to do the journey during the day for the amazing view or any other reasons? I would love some first hand advice!
2) What is the difference between the ADO bus and the vans I've been hearing about? All I know is that the trips are shorter by a few hours. Is this true?
3) Does anyone have any info about said vans - companies, experience, etc - as I haven't had much luck finding it online?
Thank you so much!

Have you tried Aerotucan? Looks like they have flights every day from PE to Oaxaca. It's a fun flight.

México celebra Zipolite, su popular festival nudista

México celebra Zipolite, su 

popular festival nudista

La Federación Nudista de México anunció que todo está listo 

para la gran fiesta en la que la gente se quita la ropa, Mirá cómo es

Por Redacción LA










El Festival de Zipolite, en el estado sureño de Oaxaca, uno de los más pobres, con mayor población indígena, rendirá culto a la desnudez al estilo de un carnaval en su próxima edición del 2 al 4 de febrero
La Playa de Zipolite, en las tranquilas aguas del Pacífico, es prácticamente la única en México dedicada a practicar el nudismo, una forma de ocio que gana cada vez más adeptos en el mundo
El lugar se ha vuelto una especie de santuario para los liberales que anhelan mostrarse al natural, con la piel totalmente al descubierto
La Federación Nudista de México (FNM) anunció que todo está listo para la realización de la tercera edición del Festival Nudista de Zipolite 2018, que se llevará a cabo del 2 al 4 de febrero.La apertura del festival, que tendrá un estilo carnavalesco, aprovechando que se avecinan esas fiestas en algunas localidades del país,
iniciará el viernes 2 con la Calenda de bienvenida, un desfile donde participan escuelas de la comunidad, bandas de música, habitantes de los pueblos aledaños y nudistas.El Presidente de la FMN, Juan Marcos Castañeda, informó que se realizarán actividades como danzas regionales, conciertos musicales, obras de teatro, clases de yoga nudista, así como carreras de obstáculos y sin ellos
También se prevé un tour marino nudista para avistar ballenas y tortugas, voleibol playero, un taller de pintura corporal, una fotografía grupal de nudistas y un "temazcal" (baño de vapor a la usanza indígena), entre otras actividades
El encuentro tiene lugar en vista del éxito alcanzado en las primeras dos ediciones del festival, donde los organizadores aseguran que "se lograron algunas metas importantes", como la declaración municipal de playa nudista opcional, lo que coloca a este destino como la única playa nudista oficial de México.Zipolite registró desde entonces un crecimiento en ocupación hotelera durante las fechas de este evento, que en 2016 fue de 85%, mientras que en 2017 fue del 95% y se espera que para este 2018 sea del 100 %
El festival se ha convertido por lo tanto en una especie de imán para el "turismo nudista" superando las celebraciones de Año Nuevo y hasta las de Semana Santa
La Oficina de Convenciones y Visitantes de Oaxaca ha decidido apoyar y promover este evento, como lo dio a conocer su directora Mariel López
En los próximos meses comienza la construcción del club Nature Zipolite, el primero 100% por ciento nudista en México, "un centro de reunión permanente para naturistas que impulsará el nudismo local y no sólo el turístico", afirmó López.Se prevé además a partir de la tercera edición del festival realizar una campaña sobre el "nudismo social y familiar" entre la comunidad.Otra de las metas es un acercamiento con restaurantes y bares de Zipolite y se colocará una bandera de la Federación Nudista de México en aquellos que permitan el nudismo en sus establecimientos
El propósito, a decir de Castañeda, es "desmitificar el concepto de la desnudez humana y desvincularlo del sexo" para lograr "la libertad, la aceptación del cuerpo y el contacto con la naturaleza"
Desde 2015 los nudistas se reúnen a realizar convivencias, según el dirigente, pues en la Ciudad de México hay algunas actividades fijas como yoga al desnudo, caminatas, reuniones en piscinas y en bosques en varios estados
También en Veracruz, Michoacán, Estado de México, Puebla, Morelos, Guanajuato y Jalisco, "se han formado pequeñas asociaciones o grupos de gente que se han sumado a este movimiento y disfrutan de convivir sin ropa", dijo Castañeda.
