Lacandon People
The Lacandon People are an indigenous group residing in the Chiapas region of Mexico. They primarily inhabit the lush rainforests of the Lacandon Jungle, where they maintain a traditional lifestyle closely connected to nature. The Lacandon are known for their unique language, also called Lacandon, and their rich cultural practices, including traditional crafts and rituals.
Historically, the Lacandon People have faced challenges due to deforestation and external pressures on their land. Today, they continue to preserve their cultural heritage while adapting to modern influences. Efforts are being made to support their rights and promote sustainable practices in their environment.
