The Mixe, who number about 85000 people, live in the North East corner of the state of Oaxaca, which borders the State of Vera Cruz. There are three distinct areas, the highlands above 5500 feet, the mid lands 2400 to 5500 feet and the lowlands. The highland area is mountainous with many spectacular views; the middle area has a great deal of forested land. The highland has a sacred mountain called Zempaltepelt, which is said to be the home of Condoy the Mixe leader. The Mixe believe they are from Peru. Another interesting fact about the Mixe is that the Zapotec, Aztecs nor the Spanish ever militarily conquered them.This is a short video of some word spoken in thier language.
