The coordinators of the “Atlas Etnográfico de los Pueblos Indígenas de Chiapas” (The Indigenous Peoples of Chiapas, Ethnographic Atlas) are members of the “Frontera Sur” (Southern Border) team of “The Indigenous Regions of Mexico in the New Millenium,” a national project of the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH). In this magnificent 521-page volume the authors introduce the reader to the indigenous world in the state of Chiapas. This work provides invaluable information including critical analyses of central aspects of indigenous culture and society. Themes including historical overviews, personhood, environment and land use, social organization, indigenous social movements, cosmovision, indigenous arts, health and disease, religious diversity, indigenous normative systems, and migration are treated systematically. In this review we summarize the contribution of the work and discuss various topics of interest.
