The Zapotec indigenous people of Mexico live primarily
in Southern Oaxaca and on the Isthmus of
Tehuantepec
and are renowned for their
weavings and carvings.
Little is known of the
origin of the Zapotec. Unlike most native peoples of Middle America,
they had no traditions or legends of migration,
but believed themselves to have been born
directly from rocks, trees, and jaguars.
The early Zapotec were a sedentary, agricultural, city-dwelling
people who worshiped a pantheon of gods
headed by the rain god, Cosijo—represented
by a fertility symbol combining the earth-jaguar
and sky-serpent symbols
common in Middle American
cultures. A priestly
hierarchy regulated religious
rites, which
sometimes included human
sacrifice.
The Zapotec worshiped their ancestors and, believing
in a paradisaical underworld, stressed the
cult of the dead.
They had a great religious
center at Mitla
and a magnificent city
at Monte Albán , where
a highly developed civilization
flourished possibly more
than 2,000 years
ago.
In art, architecture, hieroglyphics,
mathematics,
and calendar the Zapotec seem to have had cultural affinities
with the Olmec , with the
ancient Maya ,
and later with the Toltec
.
