Ixchel Goddess of the Moon and Weaving

Here we have a tocoyales exhibit at Museo del Tejido Antiguo. I know, you are wondering what in the world is a tocoyal, right? Basically, tocoyales are bands that your wrap around your head; in other words, headwear Mayan textiles.

By the way, in case you didn’t know, Ixchel is the Mayan goddess of the moon and weaving.

Holy Week Elements Antigua Photo Walks: During Lent and the Holy Week I will be hosting special photo walks themed around the elements of the Holy Week. I still have some dates available, so hurry and book your private photo walk now before it is too late. I promise you a very special and information-packed photo walk with hundreds of photo opportunities. To get a sense of the things we will photograph, take a photo tour through the Holy Week Elements.
