The hammock in the daily life of indigenous peoples of Latin America

The hammock is a very important element of “Indian” life. It’s not just limited to sleep and naps. It also plays a role against unwanted animals that could enter homes during the night, especially when these animals are not frightened by the nearby fireplace. The hammock is also used for working in the manufacture of a variety of objects. The women cook there, while the children find it a magnificent playground. In the evening, the men gather in the hammocks to share the events of their day or exchange stories, sometimes several people in the same hammock. In search of isolation, some individuals use it to temporarily distance themselves from the rest of society.

A hammock in homage to the old town of Ticuantepe

Ticuantepe is a small town located in the department of Managua, Nicaragua. It is a charming and quiet town, known for its pleasant climate and lush vegetation. The city is surrounded by mountains and forests, making it an ideal place for hikers and nature lovers. There are also many artisans who work with wood, leather and cotton, as well as local producers of coffee and tropical fruits. One of the most important sites and which is a reference for coexisting with nature is the Chocoyero-El Brujo Wildlife Refuge, declared a protected area in 1993.
