MEDINA MIRANDA, Héctor. Wixárika Multiterritoriality: Details about the Shared Space and the Wixaritari Communities. Rev. pueblos front. digit. [online]. 2024, vol.19, e721.  Epub 21-Jun-2024. ISSN 1870-4115.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cimsur.18704115e.2024.v19.721.

This paper reviews the various territorial configurations that the Wixaritari deal with in their everyday life, the historical processes that have led them towards deterritorialization and the strategies with which they have responded by means of creating new communal territories that are articulated through ritual tradition. The cosmogonic and communal territory is at stake within these configurations, processes, and strategies. The paper dialogues with Paul Liffman’s work, the anthropologist who claims that the existence of Wixaritari tributary state systems originated in the exchange of sacrificial offerings between ceremonial centers.

Palabras llave : reterritorialization; traditional community; sacred territory; tribute; State.
