What is outstanding and memorable about this collection of images is as much about the photographer, Alejandra Figueroa as the subject matter itself.

As the poem at the back of this work says...

Pause Mexican
This is the root of your history,
Your cradle and your alter
You will hear the hushed voice of Mexico's
Oldest culture, perhaps that of
Our continent's nurturing civilization
The Olmecs turned the rain into crops,
The Sun into a Calendar
Stone into sculpture, cotton into cloth
Pilgrimages into trade,
Hillocks into thrones, Jaguars
Into religions and men
Into Gods...
