Teotitlán del Valle
Teotitlán del Valle is a smaw veelage an municipality locatit in the Tlacolula Destrict in the east o the Valles Centrales Region, 31 km frae the ceety o Oaxaca in the fuithills o the Sierra Juárez muntains. It is pairt o the Tlacolula Valley destrict. It is kent for its textiles, especially rugs, which are woven on haund-operatit luims, frae oo obtained frae local sheep an dyed mainly wi local, naitural pigments. Thay are weaved in tradeetional designs but modren designs sic as reproductions o famous airtists’ wirk an custom orders are available, as well as tours o faimily-awned wirkshops. The name Teotitlán comes frae Nahuatl an means “laund o the gods”. Its Zapotec name is Xaguixe, which means “at the fuit o the muntain”. It wis ane o the first veelages foondit bi the Zapotecs in this aurie, in 1465, an it still retains its Zapotec cultur an leid.
History
This veelage is considered tae be ane o the first that wis foondit bi the Zapotecs aroond 1465. It wis oreeginally namit Xaquija, which means “celestial constellation”. Accordin tae research done bi Manuel Martínez Gracida, thare wis a lairge stane split in hauf wi the name o the Stane o the Sun. It wis the first idol o the Zapotecs here. It wis believit that a god came frae the heivens in the shape o a bird, accompaniet bi a constellation o starns tae foond the temple here. Teotitlán del Valle wis refoondit as a Spainyie veelage in 1527. It is believit that the faither o ane o the Niños Heroes, bi the name o Agustín Melgar, wis frae here, due tae veelage records bearin his name.
The toun
Teotitlán del Valle is a tradeetional landwart toun that maintains its Zapotec cultur. In the municipal mercat, fowk gather at seiven in the fore-nuin tae buy fuidstuffs an craft materials for thair hames an businesses. Maist fowk here retain auncient tradeetions; a majority o the indwallers speak Zapotec.
The name o the commonty museum is Balaa Xtee Guech Gulal, which means “in the shadae o the auld veelage/fowk.” The museum opened in 1995 an the maist recent addeetion is a display dedicatit tae the Danza de la Pluma (Feather Dance). The museums conteens sign in Spainyie, Inglis an Zapotec. Thare are three main haws, ane dedicatit tae the aircheology o the municipality, ane tae crafts an ane tae tradeetional weddins. The aircheological haw conteens maistly etched stanes an ceramic items, which visitors can touch. A nummer o the pieces shaw signs o Olmec visitation tae the aurie aroond 500 BCE. The crafts room conteens items sic as auld photographs, looms, exhibits on hou oo is processed an dyes are made an uised tae mak textiles. The weddin haw conteens a recreation o the gruim performin his tradeetional ceremonial obligations, sic as gifts. Thare is a weddin mural an aw.
Accordin tae the Enciclopedia de los Municipios de Mexico, ane tradeetion o betrothal involves the prospective gruim goin tae the prospective bride’s parents, bringin gifts sic as breid, caunles, decorations, chocolate an fruit. Anither is tae “rob” the girl (quotes in the oreeginal), then fynd someane tae negotiate a weddin wi the parents. This body generally is someane wi a guid reputation in the commonty an uisually is a senior ceetizen. S/he communicates the intentions o the boy an states whaur the girl is, aften wi firewirks tae indicate the location. Efter negotiations, the parents set a weddin date an aw come thegither tae arrange the weddin.
The toun’s major festival is the Feast o the Precious Bluid o Christ which occurs each year on the first Wadensday o Julie an lasts aboot a week. The event haes carnival rides an a basketbaw toornament but the main featur is “Danza de la Pluma” or Feather Dance (cried Guyach in Zapotec). Dancers wear elaborate heiddresses made frae pentit feathers, giein rise tae the name in Spainyie. The dance commemorates the conquest o the Aztec bi the Spainyie.
Textiles o Teotitlán del Valle
The commonty is famous for its weavins cried “laadi” in the local leid, wi textiles as the main economic activity. This commonty is kent for its woven oo rugs which uise natural dyes sic as those obtained bi the cochineal insect. Thir rugs can hae native indigenous motifs or mair modren designs. The ither main economic activity is agricultur.
Weaving in this veelage dates back at least till 500 BCE. The earliest weavins uised cotton an ixtle an utilisit the backstrap loom. Teotitlán wad pey its financial tribute tae the Aztecs in weavins. Mair modren weavin wis introducit here bi Dominican bishop Juan López Dezárate aroond 1535 when the bishop brocht sheep an treadle looms tae the aurie. The new materials an looms alloued for the weavin a lairge, hivy duty items sic as rugs, serapes an blankets. Ower time the veelage grew an began specializin solely in rugs tae be uised for tred or sale in mercats o ither touns in the ither pairts o the state. Wi the completion o the Pan-American Heich-gate in the late 1940s, the aurie wis connectit wi Mexico Ceety, openin up mercats. In the 1950s wi air traivel, tourists began comin tae Oaxaca an takkin interest in the crafts.
The rugs are handcraftit frae oo an maist o the designs are woven frae the craftsmen’s memory. Designs include Zapotec an Mixtec glyphs an fretwirk, Navajo designs (a contentious issue) an mair contemporar designed includin reproductions o wirks bi famous airtists sic as Picasso, Joan Miró, Matisse, Diego Rivera or Rufino Tamayo. The makkin o the rugs begins the washin o the raw oo tae rid it o dirt an residues. Next it is cairdit then spun intae yarn. The yarn is woond intae lairge baws tae prepare for dyin wi natural dyes sic as those obtained frae the needle bush, indigo, cochineal, “musgo de roca”, brazilwood, Mexican marigold an ithers. some workshops uise chemical dyes. The traditional looms are haund-operated.
Weavin is done bi baith sexes in faimily wirkshops in which airtisans o aw ages pairticipate in the wirk. Aboot 150 faimilies are involvit in the craft, as well as several faimilies that specialize in caunle-makkin. Ane sic workshop is the Artesanía Casa Santiago, locatit on the toun’s main street syne 1966. Maist weavers wirk in agricultur as well as weavin but increasin consumer demand haes promptit some tae spend mair time weavin. Wirkshops sic as thir even tak custom orders wi images o modren items sic as a request for a waw hangin promotin Pentax cameras.
Mony o the wirkshops permit visitors tae enter an see hou the rugs an ither textiles are made. Some o the wirkshops hae broadened thair afferins tae include waw hangins, handbags, pillae covers, jackets, ponchos an dresses.

In 1661 the twa pairishes o Auld an New Luice wis reunitit for a time, an whan the 1684 Wigtounshire Pairish Leet wis recordit, it leetit baith Auld Luice an New Luice unner "Glenluice Pairish".

"The church, erected in 1814, is a commodious edifice, and situated close to the village. The members of the United Secession Church have a place of worship. There are several other schools, and one is supported by the Hay family."
