Dr. Rosita Arvigo to Speak at Chaa Creek

Dr. Rosita Arvigo to Speak at Chaa Creek | Cayo Scoop! The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it
From www.chaacreek.com - February 17, 2012 1:30 PM

Dr. Arvigo has written numerous books on medicinal plants and Maya food.  She studied under Don Elijio Panti. 

"Don Elijio Panti (1893 – 1996) gained international recognition as one of the last living links of an ancient Maya system of healing that employs medicinal plants, massage, acupuncture, herbal and sweat baths and prayers to effect cures on a wide range of maladies. Beginning as a chiclero collecting sapodilla tree resin (the base for chewing gum) for companies such as Wrigley’s, Don Elijio studied under Maya curers in the jungles of Guatemala and Belize."

Christmas Bram and Sambai of Gales Point

From www.youtube.com - December 9, 2025 6:56 AM
Cultural video of the season. Belize’s Krismos Bram and Sambai has been inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Awesome! They interview Emmeth Young and he talks about the culture and history of the event. Worth a watch, as you'll learn about how new songs are regularly created and added, and how the experience affects everyone around Gales Point, and beyond.
