- W2046976800 abstract "TZINTZUNTZAN, MICHOACAN, MEXICO is a mestizo peasant community on the shores of Lake Patzcuaro 230 miles west of Mexico City. Its 2000 inhabitants earn livings by making pottery in home workshops, by farming, by casual day labor, and by fishing, in that order of importance. The basic social and cultural patterns of Tzintzuntzan appear to be very similar to those of hundreds of other Mexican villages in the central highlands. Here, in the evening, when work is done and family and friends gather to relax, conversation is likely to turn to tales of the acquisition of wealth by extraordinary means, usually by the discovery of buried treasure. In fact, apart from a constant preoccupation with health matters and from discussions as to how the necessary permits can be obtained to enter the United States as a bracero (short-term indentured farm laborer), no topic arouses such lively interest. These tales are neither myth nor legend (categories essentially lacking in Tzintzuntzan), nor are they folk stories. The latter are told fairly frequently, and they deal with such common European motifs as Pedro de Urdemales, Tar Baby, kings with three sons, and the like, all set in the vague and indefinite locales that characteristically mark such accounts. Treasure tales are short, historical accounts, dealing with people still living or recently dead, in specific places localized as precisely as well known houses, trees, or rocks. Analytically, two principal types of treasure tale can be discerned:" @default.
