Tarahumara Indian Pottery
Pottery from the Copper Canyon area of Mexico, Gallery Page 6

The Tarahumara Indians, or Rarmuri, The Runners as they call themselves, are one of North America’s last surviving indigenous tribes. And, they are said to be the least touched by civilization. They number around 50,000 and still inhabit the same region they have for centuries — the rugged Sierra Madre Occidental of Northern Mexico, also referred to as the Copper Canyon.

There is no recorded history of the Tarahumara prior to the arrival of the Spaniards in the 16th century. So, no one knows how long the Tarahumara have lived in the Copper Canyon region. Yet, archeologists have found evidence of humans living in the area three thousand years ago.

The Tarahumara live in caves, huts or small cabins, primarily between 7,000 and 9,000 feet elevation. Yet, a few live closer to the canyon floor. The climate varies from arid to tropical and the extremely rugged terrain is a mixture of mesas, valleys and canyon walls. Running up and down the steep canyons is an important part of Tarahumara culture, not only as a means of transportation and communication, but also as a sport between villages. Consequently, the Tarahumara are world renown for their endurance.
