Re: Mexican Mummies
So very true. I doubt we will ever evolve from the materialistic ideals that trap us. Take the funerary customs of mainstream USA for example... It's all about how can we prevent the body from doing what it was always meant to do after death. The natural process of death has been so sterilized and become so very clinical, that we lose sight of the bigger picture. I mean, WHY do we need to pump a body full of chemicals and encase it in expensive caskets them grave liners to keep the water out and make sure no insects can get to it? I'd like to be placed straight in the earth and let nature take its course. I think this is becoming a "thing" now, you can be buried without a casket in some special cemeteries and just go back to the earth. I like it :)

Re: Mexican Mummies
Lol yes, amazingly! We avoided border areas to the north but did spend a lot of time in Michoacan state, which has seen its fair share of shit. A few weeks after we left the city of Morelia, all hell broke loose and a cartel boss was taken down, glad we avoided that! La Familia Michoacan run the place there, scary peeps. Worst trouble we had was being robbed by a cop at 2am on a deserted road on our way to the airport. We kind of regretted our decision to self-drive around the country at that point, but in the end it made for a fucking good story :P

Re: Mexican Mummies
Just looking through my past threads and found this, the first one I ever made on DR. I'd forgotten I even posted these momias. Bumped cause they are fascinating!
