Sumario: | The municipality of Catorce, San Luis Potosi, located in the Potosi High plateau, in the Chihuahua Desert, is a socially complex region, where temporary population such as “hippies”, tourists, catholic pilgrims and Huichol groups circulate amongst the cohabitation of former miners, tourism entrepreneurs and / or “hippies”.For these former miners whose recent ethnonym is “catorceños” the lifecycles and the holy images’ holidays are occasions to prepare elaborate dishes and share them collectively. Since their early childhood, these dishes create the scents and flavors and body strength. In their opinion “hippies” settled in Real de Catorce, possess weak and sickly bodies due to their vegetarianism and for not offering the foods known as “relic” to the holy images, this is, they did not consume food the body needs for strength. In the ritual food that “catorceños” and “hippies” consume, that motivate researching into their relationships and the topographical (mountain range vs low lands), politics, social and rituals differences within this complex society. |
