The Maya Tribe Balam Na
Balam Na Translates House of Jaguar. Originally from Yucatan, Mexico the people of Balam Na migrated to what is is now known as Colorado. They have made homes here for a better life for the future generations in the Denver Metro area. Balam Na currently consist of less than 40 people where only a hand full are able to preserve the Maya ways in a traditional sense. In the year ,the newly appointed Cheifton Night Jaguar son of Balam Na, started an outreach program to share the Maya culture to the public. The goal being to push back against the colonial narratives that the Maya people no longer exist. They preserve this heritage with hosting public dances, storytelling, and other forms of art.
