Tiffany Vargas Garcia, who also performs with the Kaltonaka Dance Group.
Kaltonaka Dance Group (Chichimeca Mexica Azteca) performed an Aztec ceremonial dance program Saturday at the Latina Festival. The dancers wore Aztec regalia that often included feather headdresses and leg rattles. The group is based out of northern New Mexico, but one of its members, Laisha Vargas Garcia, is a President's List student at WNMU.
Laisha’s response when asked what is “Chichimeca Mexica Azteca,” which is in their header name:
“chichimeca mexica azteca” is basically all referring to our people and our ancestors. our ancestors used to be known through all of those names “chichimecas” “mexicas” (pronounced meh-shee-kahs) and “aztecas, she said.”
"Chichimecas were the different groups of peoples who first established themselves in what was known as Aztlán/ Tenochtitlán known as current day Mexico City.
"The chichimecas eventually turned into the Aztec Empire with famous emperors such as Montezuma II.

The Cobre Consolidated School Board held a regular meeting on May 28, 2024. Board members in attendance included Gabriella Begay, Gilbert Guadiana, David Terrazas, Angelina Hardin, and Emmarie Heredia. Superintendent Michael Koury also attended.
The council approved the agenda after discussion on public input. Guadiana objected to the agenda not providing a public input and public input on agenda items. "We are not being transparent, and it is policy. I have addressed this many times." Begay said she had just received the email from him today on the matter. She had reached out to legal counsel, and they agreed having it on the agenda twice would be redundant. She had included the matter in the agenda to discuss as a council.
