This group consists of 41,609 people, according to the 2000 census. They live mainly in the northerly sector of Chiapas state, principally in the municipios and towns of Amatán, Copainalá, Chapultenango, Francisco León, Ixhuatán, Ixtacomitán, Jitotol, Ocotepec, Ostuacán, Pantepec, Rayón, Totolapa, Tapilula, Tecpatán, Acala, Blanca Rosa, and Ocozocoautla. They also live in the northern part of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in the state of Oaxaca, including the Selva Zoque. Their language is also called Zoque, and has several branches and dialects. The Zoque are related to the Mixe. In the pre-Hispanic period, the Zoque lived throughout Chiapas, and Isthmus of Tehuantepec and parts of the state of Tabasco. They are hypothesized to be the descendants of the Olmec. They had a good social and commercial relationship with the later Mexica, which contributed to the economic prosperity of their culture in Chiapas. In 1494 they were invaded and defeated by the Aztecs, during the reign of Ahuizotl, and forced to pay tribute. The Spanish conquest of the Zoque lands commenced in 1523, under the leadership of Luis Marin. The Zoque were parceled out amongst the settlers, where they endured forced labor and were obliged to pay high tribute. Diseases, exploitation and the miserable conditions under which they lived contributed to a significant decrease in their numbers. The situation of the Zoque did not improve with Mexican independence, since they continued to be exploited by the mestizos and criollos. It was not until 1922, when they were assigned ejidos (common lands), that their living conditions improved somewhat.

Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Southwest Museum Paper 15. First edition. Donald Bush Cordry (1907-1978) was an artist and photographer who studied the art of Mexican Indians. In 1931, Cordry made his first trip to Guerrero, Mexico, where he became interested in contemporary mask making. In 1934, Cordry moved to New York to work as a marionette designer for puppeteer Tony Sarg. While there, he contacted George G. Heye to learn more about Mexican Indian art. This led to a series of collecting expeditions from 1935 to 1938, during which Cordry collected Mexican masks and other artifacts for the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation.

Hardcover. Condition: g+. Third printing. Folio. XX, 373, [1]pp. Original photo-illustrated dust-jacket over red cloth with gold and black lettering on spine. This remarkable work approaches the study of Indian costumes in two ways. First it examines the general history of the costume, the tools and techniques used in making it, and the nature and variation of the particular garments and accessories and how they are worn. Second, it analyzes in detail the costume of some 27 villages and linguistic groups. Profusely illustrated with 276 plates (16 in color), several detailed maps and a number of drawings and diagrams, this book is not only a valuable tool for anthropologists and students of folk art and crafts, but also a beautiful and sensitive record of a vanishing way of life. Dust-jacket partly rubbed along edges. Minor and sporadic soiling and foxing on paper edges. DJ in overall good, binding and interior in good+ to very good condition.
