      ​@@dannylv1257its due to the slow cooking, marinade, and putting under soil. Think Barbacoa which is the origin of the word BBQ. You thinking grill when you hear BBQ is just a modern version of the same. A closer cooking style in the US we now call smoking BBQ, think brisket. They really should make a video of the origin of BBQ as a companion piece to this.

      There is evidence that pigs were present in the Americas before the arrival of European colonizers, but the exact timing and origins of their introduction are still unclear.
      Here are some key findings:
      Ancient DNA: Recent studies have analyzed ancient DNA from pig remains found in the Americas. These studies suggest that there were two distinct genetic lineages of pigs present in the Americas before the arrival of European colonizers.
      Pre-Columbian finds: Archaeologists have discovered pig remains in several pre-Columbian sites in North America, dating back to around 1000-1500 BCE. Some of these finds include:
      The "pig cemetery" in Mexico, which dates back to around 1000 BCE.
      The "Tlaxcala" site in Mexico, which dates back to around 200 BCE.
      The "Cahokia Mounds" site in Illinois, USA, which dates back to around 700 CE.

      Good news is that several can still be learned via online, etc. Learn it and spread the knowledge to the fam and each generation will be more indigenized. Also start naming the future generations with Native names for it to stick more! It is up to the generation today to save it and not them win for this is what they wanted!

    • @Egr-et6ar

      The works of philologist Francisco Pimentel and demographer Antonio García Cubas lent support to this view: He called the locals an “enemy” of the other inhabitants of Mexico (Eürös) and suggested European immigration and racial mixing as an answer to the problem of the indigenous peoples. The Indians must “forget their customs and even their language, if that were possible,” so that Mexico would no longer be burdened by two diverse races.
      Like I said, they planned to mix out the locals but jokes from the start since pale skin and colorfu eyes/hair are recessive génëtics and those genetics can’t trump the dominant genetics.

    I think it's pretty important to remember that these cultures and traditions are not dying out in accident. They're being exterminated by colonialism and the people who set it in motion have no interest in stopping as they absorb, disrespect and regurgitate the shadows of those cultures back up in the form of capitalistic "representation". Which colonizers are more than happy to consume en masse while they acknowledge the damage being done.
    These cultures were always beautiful and vibrant and valid. And they are dying out because the entire concept of ws is killing them in slow motion.
