ALUXES de YUCATÁN: los DUENDES MAYAS que un ANTROPÓLOGO NO Puede Explicar

Welcome to a new episode of The DoQmentalist Podcast! In this installment, we're joined by renowned anthropologist and journalist Rafael Gómez Chi for a deep and fascinating conversation about Mayan cosmology and the secrets held by the Mayab (Yucatán). From a scientific perspective, yet open to the unexplained, we explore topics ranging from the true nature of the Aluxes to chilling experiences in cemeteries and abandoned haciendas. What lies behind the droit du seigneur on the haciendas? Why haven't the Maya truly disappeared? In this podcast, we unravel Yucatecan identity, the origin of its distinctive accent, and the macabre traditions that still persist in southeastern Mexico. A must-listen episode for lovers of history, mystery, and culture. 🎧 Listen to the full podcast and subscribe for more episodes of investigation and mystery. 📍 CHAPTERS (Timestamps): 00:00 Introduction: Rafael Gómez Chi on the Podcast 01:14 Who is Rafael Gómez Chi?
