Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: In the center of the Plaza Prinicipal, there is a fountain with a lady in a huipil - an embroidered blouse of local design - pouring water from a jug. It is a fine place to sit back and watch life move by while birdsong competes with automobile noise. The city was isolated for much of its history. In colonial times, the city was reserved for people of pure-Spanish blood only. Indigenous Mayans were not allowed to live here nor even enter the Plaza. Eventually, in 1847, the Maya rebelled in the War of the Castes. Valladolid was the first focus of the war. Many fled to Merida after a two month long siege. Those who did not were slaughtered by the victorious Maya. |
