SUIT OF THE CHETUMALEÑA
The representative suit
of the State of Quintana Roo, was designed by the governor
Rafael And Melgar in the year of 1936, same one that
I am inspired by atuendo which the Mayan princess in
the most significant ceremonies shone, situation than
it makes emphasize, since it is a genuine reflection
of his ancestors and their culture. It is formed by
two pieces, the dress in his inferior part, this adorned
of pink color symbolizing the cardial point of the south
and the interior of the Earth, the layer is open to
the flanks until the height of the bust; in the inferior
part we observed a large mask, copies of that they are
located in the archaeological zone of Kohunlich, the
later part remarca to the descendent God of Tulum; on
the foot of the efigies are the flora and the forest
wealth; in the edges it takes green color, that is the
sacred color of the Mayans. The suit is of linen color
ivory and the reasons can be painted or be embroidered.
In 1978, "Mexico Young lady" gains the prize to the
best regional custome in the Aid. The large mask of
Kohunlich appeared embroidering of spangle and chaquira.
This fact frame to the suit of chetumaleña as I brought
of the quintanarroense woman.
