Who they are
The Xinca are an Indigenous people distinct from the Maya peoples, living mainly in the mountains and valleys of southeastern Guatemala. Historically known for their steadfast cultural resistance and deep connection to the land and farming, they now seek to honor their ancestral heritage, while most of the community uses Spanish in everyday life.
