These photos reveal the unique agricultural system of the Maya people
SHARE

The Maya people of Guatemala have a rich history of sustainable agricultural practices that have stood the test of time. One such system is the “milpa” system, which combines various crops like corn, squash, and beans in a way that promotes sustainability and environmental preservation. This ancient technique, which focuses on the long-term benefits of managing the land sustainably, has recently gained recognition from the United Nations as a key tool in combating the effects of climate change and achieving sustainable development goals by 2030.

In addition to their agricultural practices, the Maya people are also reclaiming their cultural heritage through traditional arts and practices. Basket-weaving, traditional clothing, and spiritual rituals are just some of the ways in which the Maya are reconnecting with their past and finding their place in modern Guatemala. This revival of ancient traditions is not only a way to preserve their culture but also a means of promoting a more sustainable way of life that respects the environment and their ancestors.

One of the focal points of this cultural resurgence is Lake Atitlán, a central fixture in the lives of lakeside communities where the past and present blend seamlessly. Here, women can be seen washing their clothes in the lake against the backdrop of ancient volcanoes, highlighting the harmonious relationship between the Maya people and their natural surroundings. This blend of tradition and modernity is emblematic of the Maya people’s efforts to preserve their heritage while embracing the challenges of the 21st century.

Overall, the Maya people’s commitment to sustainability, cultural preservation, and environmental stewardship serves as a powerful example for communities around the world. By honoring their past and embracing the future, the Maya are paving the way for a more harmonious relationship between humans and the natural world.
