Susticacan

| Comments Off on Susticacan

a beautiful small village in the sierra near Jerez, Zacatecas MX, Susticacan was never conquered by the Spanish during the conquest / that is, as explained here in the video, everytime the conquistadores arrived from the nearby mines of Zacatecas the Indian populace just took to the hills.

A clean, flower-filled friendly village, August is the fiesta for Susticacan, and descendents plus migrants return.  Its worth it to rent a car from Zacatecas or Jerez and proceed even further into the sierra, it almost feels like stepping back in time.

 

Thanks to Jaime Cortez, photographer.  This we shot a couple years ago, are now working on haciendas.

The beautiful small town in the sierra of Susticacan is unique in that it has remained autonomous since its founding in 1562. The Indigenous populations inhabiting the town never capitulated to the Spanish. Its a clean place, filled with flowers, fruit trees and gardens. The town fiesta is August 15th, when natives who live and work abroad come back to celebrate.
