Greetings!

I have been contacted by student Arthur Cortez with a number of questions about Raramuri Culture. I only run the machines that keep this site running, so I don't feel qualified to answer his questions, but I thought the Radio Tarahumara community might be able to help him out.

His questions were regarding:

• Geographic location
• Traditional clothing
• Traditional food
• Raramuri music
• Interesting facts or cultural practices
• Traditional stories and cultural mythos (creation stories, etc)

I found this article and thought it was interesting. It mentions that Rarámuri runners seem to be "immune to the injuries that plague the rest of the running world."

Enjoy.
