The Mixe of Oaxaca: Religion, Ritual, and Healing by Frank J. Lipp (Paperback, 1998)

The Mixe of Oaxaca was the first extensive ethgraphy of the Mixe, with a special focus on Mixe religious beliefs and rituals and the curing practices associated with them. It records the procedures, design-plan, corresponding prayers, and symbolic context of well over one hundred rituals. Frank Lipp has written a new preface for this edition, in which he comments on the relationship of Mixe religion to current theoretical understandings of present-day Middle American folk religions.
