| description | The mythic dimension of the Tarascan migration. In the foundation myth described in the Relación de Michoacán, the alliance and confrontation between male solar hunters and female aquatic-telluric, fisher-farmers represent the union of opposites but complementary principles, analogous to those participating in the set up of the human being. Considering that the deity and the people are mutually represented, the displacement of the Chichimecs in the north-south sense is comparable to the apparent seasonally movement of the sun – their god – in the horizon, and symbolizes at the same time the origins of the real Tarascan and a change in the economic strategies during the annual cycle. In the sociological sphere, the union of the opposites originates a state divided into three capitals. In the corporal plan, the cold and hot components of the body vitalize a third entity who acts as a regulator center. It’s by the same logical principles that the body and the society metaphorically refer each other. |
