    Testimony to Massacres Deemed Dangerous by Education Minister
    Cerigua Weekly Briefs, 27 March 1996. Education Minister Arabella Castro de Comparini says Masacres de la Selva (Massacres in the Jungle), published in 1992 by San Carlos University, which consists of eyewitness testimonies describing massacres by the army between 1975 and 1982 in the Ixcn region of northern Quiche and Huehuetenango provinces, will inspire violence in public schools and is too dangerous to be read by students.
    Bands banned as Guatemala downplays militarism Literacy For All a Distant Dream
    By Celina Zubieta, IPS, 10 March 1999. Nearly one-third of the 11.6 million people of Guatemala cannot read or write, mostly women and people living in rural areas. The peace accords signed with guerrillas in 1996 established goals for the reduction of illiteracy, a 50 percent increase in spending for education by the year 2000, established mandatory primary education for the first three grades, and bi-lingual education in rural areas.

    History
    Main article: History of Guatemala From the to the 11th century , the lowlands area of the Peten region of Guatemala was the heart of the flourishing Maya civilization After the collapse of the lowland states, the Maya states of the central highlands continued until conquered by the Spanish , who first arrived in and colonised the area. Alta Vera Paz is known for the fact that after failing to conquer it by the sword the Spanish entered by the cross, with missionaries. Almost all pre-colombian Maya books were lost due to the policy of Spaniards during the colonial period of burning them. The Popol Vuh , a pre-colombian Maya creation story, is one that survived.

    Guatemala Information Local Tips Currency Converter Weather Forecast Local Links Guatemala is the northernmost country of Central America. It has borders to the north and west with Mexico, to the east with Belize, Honduras and El Salvador and benefits from beaches both on the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. At only 42,042 square miles, about the size of Tennessee, Guatemala is a relatively small country but it has a very diverse topography, which in turn contributes to many different microclimates, yet the country never suffers any extreme temperatures. Guatemala has about 11 million inhabitants, of whom 55% are descendants of the Mayas. The official language is Spanish, but 23 indigenous languages are spoken throughout the countryside. The Mayan Civilization The legacy of the Mayan civilization and the colonial period, as well as its living cultures (customs and traditions), represent the country's main attractions. The Mayas developed a very complex social, political, scientific and artistic organization. They invented a calendar as accurate as the Gregorian calendar, and their architecture featured huge pyramids with huge staircases. They were the creators of hieroglyphic writing, so that it is possible today to interpret their legacy despite the passing of the centuries.

    History
    The earliest Maya civilizations began to emerge in the highlands of Guatemala by as early as 2000 BC. Bustling city-states grew, and trading networks covered large areas of what is now Central America and Mexico. By AD 250, the Early Classic Period, great temple cities of pyramids and plazas rose in the Guatemalan highlands. In addition to the notable architecture, the Maya also developed a complex calendar, a hieroglyphic writing system, and an impressive body of scientific knowledge. The Maya civilization was already somewhat fragmented when Europeans arrived in the early 1500's, and the weak and divided Maya were easily conquered by the Spaniards. By 1528 Pedro de Alvarado had established Spanish rule over the region, and those of native blood descended to the bottom of the new social hierarchy. The lands were carved up into large estates and the people ruthlessly exploited by the new landowners.

    General Information National Parks Archaeological Guatemala Guatemala City ... Return to Central America Revised: 30 Jan 2004 Information Guatemala A journey in Guatemala takes the visitor in a few minutes from the lush vegetation of the warm low lands zone to the cold of the pine forests. Most of the nine million Guatemalans live in the valleys of the mountainous regions, in the center of the country, where the climate is temperate. This is the region of lakes and volcanoes for which Guatemala is known throughout the world. Guatemala is also a country of magic, as chronicled by the first historians and travelers, not only because of the beauty and splendor of its climate and landscape, but for the spirit of fantasy that has always been evident in its elaborate religious rituals and the ways of its people. From pre-Hispanic times, the Guatemalan diet is based on corn, which the visitor will taste on many occasions in the form of tortillas (a sort of pancake). Guatemalan dishes also include beans, meat and chicken, prepared with local spices. These dishes are to be found in specialized restaurants, given the long time they take to prepare. Some of the most traditional dishes most often requested by Guatemalans are the Quetzaltenango tamales, kakik (spiced turkey soup), jocon (chicken in green tomato sauce), guacamole (avocado puree), subanik (beef, pork and chicken vapor-cooked in a highly spiced sauce), and traditional Antigua candy, among other delicacies.

    Information
    Guatemala City is the capital of the country and the largest city in Central America, situated about 4,000 feet above sea level on a broad plateau on the Sierra Madre, 50 miles north of the pacific coast. The climate is mild with little seasonal variation in temperatures, and most of the rainfall between May and October. Most visits to Guatemala begin in the capital of Guatemala City, a vibrant cosmopolitan city of modem buildings blending with magnificent examples of the finest Spanish colonial architecture, and the political, cultural and commercial center of the nation. Guatemala City has more than 25% of the nation’s population of eight million inhabitants. It is a center of the light industry that generates more than half of the nation’s manufacturing output, producing textiles, clothing, food, furniture and other products. Shopping is one of the most popular activities of visitors, and the beautiful array of native arts and crafts are moderately priced although the visitor is well advised to do some bargaining and not pay the first price asked. Particularly popular are the brilliantly colored and uniquely patterned fabrics, ranging from jackets and dresses to belts, blouses and blankets. Many are hand loomed just as they have been for centuries and some designs are unchanged from pre-Hispanic and colonial times. The design woven into the traditional apparel of the Chichicastenango Indian will even relate to the informed his marital status, how many children he has and how many of his sons are married.

    Country Information on Guatemala Terrain
    Almost two thirds of Guatemala consist of mountainous regions, many of which are of volcanic origin. The Sierra Madre, which runs through the south of Guatemala in an east-westerly direction, divides the country into two drainage systems of different size. The relatively narrow coastal plain on the Pacific Ocean is sufficiently supplied with water and therefore very fertile in the central region, which is most densely populated. The northern lowlands, especially the extensive area around Lake Petén Itzá (near the town of Flores), are covered with pastureland as well as tropical rainforest and are only sparsely populated. Most of the volcanoes of Guatemala are extinct, only three are known to be active, among them the Santiaguito which is located in the south-east. The highest elevation of the country is the volcano Tajumulco (4,220 m) in the south-east.
