greater variety of color. Regardless of material used, Tz’utujil weavings consistently contain a yellow stripe going through the center of the cloth and six silk tassels. Yellow symbolizes abundance and the yellow stripe is a symbol for the “Abundance Road,” which refers to the sun's path between 6 AM and 6 PM. Four silk tassels are placed on each corner of the cloth, with a tassel placed on each of the shorter sides. The tassels on the corners represent the sun rising and setting during the solstices. The long sides of the cloth symbolize the sun's path between noon and midnight. Economics Tourism has provided a market for the talented artists and weavers, who seek recognition for their creativity and unique works. Although tourism is now an increasing source of income in the region, many Tzʼutujil still practice traditional methods of farming of the two main crops in the region, coffee and maize (corn). The Tz'utujil also farm beans, fruit, and vegetables. The Tz'utujil farm using volcanic plains and trade their crops for commodities from indigenous groups in other towns. Labor is divided by gender Santiago Atitlán. Men farm, collect firewood, and participate in commercial-based activities, whereas women cook, provide water, weave, and shop. According to Orellana, few couples get divorced because of the economic necessity to perform these gendered tasks. Orellana claims that single adults are looked down upon in society because of their obligation to perform the tasks of both genders in order to support themselves. San Juan is one of three Tzʼutujil communities where artists have adapted the international genre of Arte Naif to express the cultural traditions, beliefs, ceremonies, and daily activities of their indigenous culture. This form of art and some of its most accomplished Tzʼutjil practitioners have been recognized in the definitive UNESCO-sponsored book on the subject, Arte Naif: Contemporary Guatemalan Mayan Painting (1998). The weavers of San Juan are among the few indigenous artisans who make their own dyes for the yarns they use; they produce the dyes largely from locally grown plants.

He had translated the Bible into Tzʼutujil and used his family knowledge of farming to aid the people, who grew to respect him. (Pope Francis beatified him in September 2017.) Martín Prechtel, New
