Museum of Anthropology

This morning I joined a tour to the museum of anthropology, first we went to Catahupec Park and watched a ceremony from Veracruz whee men jump off the top of a pole with ropes tied to them and spiral to the ground, playing flutes the whole time.


In the museum we visited the rooms on the early prehistory of the region Teotihuacan, the Aztecs and the Maya.




It was good to have a guide but we didnt see everything so I stayed for the afternoon as well and went to the sections on the Olmecs and on the cultures to the north in areas I never got to.
