Chinanteco
/ Archive / Regions / Mexico / Oaxaca / Chinanteco

Chinantec peoples inhabit several areas of northern Oaxaca, with languages and local traditions that differ substantially among communities. Songs, bands, and other musical expressions may accompany celebrations and social activities, but each recording requires its own identification. This category groups documents catalogued as Chinantec and connects them with their place of origin, performers, and recording date. When consulting older materials, readers should examine the names used by the original source rather than turning a regional designation into a claim that every community in the Chinantla shares the same repertoire, instruments, or performance practices.
