About the Author:
At the core of most indigenous religions is a deep respect for the earth expressed in rituals and practices that foster sustainability. Nature is often regarded as a sacred entity that comprises all the people of the earth. The endeavor of maintaining and transmitting these rituals and practices is commonly entrusted to female spiritual and intellectual leaders.
Sylvia Marcos, PhD, researches, teaches, and publishes on gender issues in ancient and contemporary Mesoamerica.
