This Hairless Mexican Dog Has a Storied, Ancient Past

With a history going back more than 3,500 years, the xoloitzcuintli dog played a significant role in Precolumbian life.

BY KRISTIN ROMEY

PUBLISHED NOVEMBER 22, 2017

To the ancient Aztec and Maya, man's best friend was also a hairless, ugly-cute healer, occasional food source, and, most importantly, guide to the Underworld.

Sometimes known as the Mexican Hairless dog, the xoloitzcuintli (pronounced "show-low-itz-QUEENT-ly") gets its name from two words in the language of the Aztecs: Xolotl, the god of lightning and death, and itzcuintli, or dog. According to Aztec belief, the Dog of Xolotl was created by the god to guard the living and guide the souls of the dead through the dangers of Mictlán, the Underworld.

One of the most ancient dog breeds of the Americas, researchers believe the ancestors of the xoloitzcuintli (or 'xolo' for short) accompanied the earliest migrants from Asia and had developed into the breed seen today by at least 3,500 years ago. The xolo's hairlessness (save for a tuft or two of hair on top of the head or on the tail) is the result of a genetic mutation that is also responsible for the dog's lack of premolars. This distinctive dental trait makes identifying the remains of xolos in archaeological contexts relatively easy.

Ceramic vessels in the shape of xolo dogs are frequently found in 2,000-year-old tombs in western Mexico.

Xolos appear in ancient Mesoamerican art often with pointed ears and wrinkly skin to indicate their hairlessness. The most frequent depictions take the form of small ceramic vessels known as Colima Dogs for the modern state in western Mexico where they are commonly found. In Colima and the neighboring states of Nayarit and Jalsico, archaeologists estimate that more than 75 percent of burials from the Preclassic period (ca. 300 B.C to A.D. 300) contain these vessels, which may have served as symbolic dog guides to help the soul of the dead travel through the Underworld.

These hairless canines also caught the eye of European chroniclers such as Christopher Columbus and the 16th-century Spanish missionary Bernadino de Sahagún, who describes how the Aztecs would tuck xolos in blankets at night to keep them warm. The dogs' fur-free bodies also serve as excellent heat conductors, making them a kind of ancient hot-water bottle for the ill and the elderly. "They know when you're sick," observes Kay Lawson, a 20-year xolo breeder and past president of the Xoloitzcuintli Club of America. "They zero right in to where it hurts."

The xoloitzcuintli was nearly eaten into extinction by hungry Spanish settlers.

Along with turkeys, xolos were one of the only domesticated animals eaten by ancient Mesoamericans. The conquistadors developed such an appetite for the convenient canine protein source when they arrived in the New World that they nearly ate the xoloitzcuintli into oblivion, says archaeologist Marc Thompson, director of the Tijeras Pueblo Museum.

By the time the xolo was officially recognized in Mexico in 1956, the breed was nearly extinct. Today, however, these ancient dogs are experiencing a revival, especially among people who are allergic to their furry counterparts. But they're not for everyone, Lawson warns.

"You really have to be thinking [with xolos] all the time," she says. "They open doors, they open crates. This is a primitive dog. They're extremely intelligent."

@supernaturval from the SolarPunk Meta chat has built this website :

☀ https://lounge.solar/ 🪑

It's a web site with all the links shared to this channel, with a search engine!

The messages transmitted by @IntuitivePublicRadio and our Intuitive network are single-link reference notes or forwarded items where severely disabled, multiply marginalized colleagues request support for specific community conversations.

Our community admins assist trafficking victims and other Intuitive Invisibles to post the links they would like to share in order to initiate lifesaving public and private conversations, anonymously when needed for safety.

Because of severe disabilities and circumstances of violence, our community members often can only post a small part of what they would like to talk about safely with others.

Many survivors of violence can only be safe to initiate a particular discussion in caring, supportive, inclusive community settings --- spaces we are building and sharing.

Our public links and notes are part of extended private @IntuitiveCommunity knowledgebase materials and collaborative groups where all are invited to participate.

We learn together how to support one another so that courageous conversations and fully inclusive communications regenerate strength and healing in our communities.

Our friends and families today are being victimized by sex trafficking and ritual abuse --- many women, children, elders, and others.

Please hear us and respond with kindness each time a conversation is initiated —- each time a message is broadcast.

Our lives depend on this.

Los administradores de nuestra comunidad ayudan a las víctimas de la trata y otros invisibles intuitivos a publicar los enlaces que les gustaría compartir para iniciar conversaciones públicas y privadas que salvan vidas, de forma anónima cuando sea necesario por motivos de seguridad.

Debido a discapacidades graves y circunstancias de violencia, los miembros de nuestra comunidad a menudo solo pueden publicar una pequeña parte de lo que les gustaría hablar de manera segura con los demás.

Muchos sobrevivientes de violencia solo pueden estar seguros si inician una discusión particular en entornos comunitarios comprensivos, solidarios e inclusivos, espacios que estamos construyendo y compartiendo.

Nuestros enlaces y notas públicos son parte de los materiales de la base de conocimientos y de los grupos de colaboración privados extendidos de @IntuitiveCommunity, donde todos están invitados a participar.

Aprendemos juntos cómo apoyarnos unos a otros para que las conversaciones valientes y las comunicaciones totalmente inclusivas regeneren la fuerza y ​​la sanación en nuestras comunidades.

Hoy en día, nuestros amigos y familias están siendo víctimas de la trata sexual y el abuso ritual: muchas mujeres, niños, ancianos y otros.

Escúchenos y responda con amabilidad cada vez que se inicie una conversación, cada vez que se transmita un mensaje.

Nuestras vidas dependen de esto.

Jonathan Balcombe: What A Fish Knows

“…gazing up to the night sky saying, ‘are we alone?’ …well, wait a minute, look around, there's tons of fascinating life forms. We're so lucky to have all this amazing panoply of life on the planet. I get the question… are there other humanoids out there? Or, are there other conscious beings? But we ought to be pretty grateful for what we have on this planet… there's a lot of amazing creatures and phenomena that we get to enjoy living with, if we can.” - Jonathan Balcombe Jonathan Balcombe is a biologist with a PhD in ethology, the study of animal behavior. He is the author of four books on the inner lives of animals, including the New York Times bestseller, What a Fish Knows. He has published over 60 scientific papers and book chapters on animal behavior and animal protection. Jonathan has spent his life studying animals, how they think and feel and why they matter. Quite often, he focuses on the ones that most of us tend not to think about very much, like fish and in his newest book, Superfly, flies – it comes out in May. I thought I knew a little bit about fish, but after reading Jonathan’s book and after this time spent with him, I realized that I knew very little. There are 33,000 species of fish and what many of them are capable of is absolutely mind blowing . For eons, we have categorized species by who we deem worthy and who we don’t. Fish are almost always very near or at the bottom of that list. Clearly, that is because most of us know so little about them. Jonathan knows a lot. If you haven’t read his book, read it. It will astonish you. Jonathan can most recently be seen in the Netflix documentary, Seaspiracy.

This is a tough story to tell. In 2019 the last of the mountain caribou in the lower 48 states disappeared. Extinct. Deforestation threatens those that are left. Professional Wildlife tracker and photographer David Moskowitz takes us to the frigid mountains of British Columbia to learn about the ancient but fragile ecosystem these majestic reindeer call home.
