49. Tarahumara A culture summary of a people who inhabit the Sierra Madre Mountains of the State of Chihuahua in Northwest mexico. http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/EthnoAtlas/Hmar/Cult_dir/Culture.7872

Society-TARAHUMARA The Tarahumara Indians inhabit the Sierra Madre Mountains of the State of Chihuahua in Northwest Mexico. Their territory centers in the upper Rio Urique drainage, and covers approximately 5,000 square miles. Modern population estimates range between 40,000-50,000. The Tarahumara language is classified as Uto-Aztecan and seems to be most closely related to Pima-Papago, Mayo, Huichol, and Yaqui. Fried (1952: 1) divides the Tarahumara into three categories, on the basis of geographical and historical factors: (1) Christianized mountain (high sierra) dwellers (2) Christianized canyon (barranca) or lowland dwellers, who vary in material culture from the former and who have been usually subjected to greater Mexican influence, and (3) gentiles, those who have resisted Christian (Mexican) influence. Most of the gentile communities are located in the high sierra. Bennett and Zingg (1935:ix) add as a fourth category a Christianized sierra region, displaying special cultural traits. Although the majority of the Tarahumara have been Christianized to some degree, they have also tended to be a highly conservative people. In fact, Champion (1970: 429) claims "There have been no significant or basic changes in the culture of the Tarahumara since at least 1700." Perhaps this is an overstatement, but the general pattern of conservatism is supported by Kennedy (1963: 639), who says of his field data: "There is an amazing correspondence . . . between what Lumholtz found in 1896 and what I found in 1960." A key aspect of this conservatism may be language, since most Tarahumara evidently still do not speak Spanish. The Tarahumara are basically an agricultural people and till their lands either by slash-and-burn techniques or with the use of ox-driven plows. Maize is the most important crop, followed by beans and squash. Other fruits and vegetables are cultivated or collected but are of only minor significance when compared to maize. Domestic animals include cattle, sheep, and goats. These animals are not eaten. What little animal food the Tarahumara consume is obtained through occasional hunting and fishing. Although the division of labor is somewhat flexible, men tend to do the hunting, fishing, agricultural tasks and woodworking, while women are in charge of domestic tasks including weaving, and pottery making. The nuclear family is both the basic household unit and the primary unit of economic cooperation. Actual household composition varies as assorted kin often move in to take up temporary residence. After marriage, a Tarahumara couple tends to reside with the bride's parents for a few years before setting up a separate household. Bilateral marriage restrictions prohibit marriage between collateral kin of the first degree of relationship as well as between lineal relatives. Few marry non-Tarahumara. Sororate and levirate arrangements are reported, but these are preferential rather than prescriptive patterns. Polygyny is practiced. Divorce is frequent and involves little formality. While the bilateral kin group is important in mutual aid, the Tarahumara are not organized into formal kin groups above the family level. The settlement pattern is characterized by dispersed households grouped into ranchos, with each rancho averaging from two to five households (although the actual range is from one to twenty households). The widely dispersed ranchos (from one to five miles apart across mountains and canyons) are grouped in turn into geographical and political units called pueblos. The pueblos, which average about fifteen miles in radius, are the basic territorial units in the society. Kennedy says that the pueblo is the largest entity to which the Tarahumara feel any allegiance. There are no social mechanisms integrating the Tarahumara as a whole. Each pueblo contains a center, composed of a church and, usually, a comunidad, or combined courthouse and jail. Large-scale religious ceremonies are held in the center. Tarahumara men elect a number of officials, the most important of whom are the gobernador and mayor, to handle the political, legal, and ceremonial affairs of the pueblo. These offices are of indeterminate length, depending on the abilities of the men filling them. The Tarahumara religious system is a blend of Catholicism and indigenous beliefs. Fried (1952:120) divides religious practices into two spheres: (1) the large-scale pueblo ceremonies run by pueblo officials and highly influenced by Catholicism, and (2) rancho ceremonies, in which the shaman is the key figure. The status of shaman is reached through apprenticeship, and these men and women are both feared and respected for their powers of divination, curing, and sorcery. Culture summary by Robert O.
