The Cucapa/los Cucapa

A week ago Saturday in El Mayor Cucapa was the annual meeting of the Cucapa nation, an indigenous people along the Colorado River whose territory cuts across the US/Mexico border.

Hace una semana sabado en El Mayor Cucapa estaba el encuentro anual de los Cucapa, un pais indigena. Su tierra esta' en los dos lados de la frontera EU/Mexico.










Traditional structures housed the meetings and meals.

The young people played piak, a traditional game.

It is a bit like soccer, a bit like golf.
