History

The Quetzal Dance is one of the most colorful folk dances in the country. It is also believed to be one of the oldest. It is believed that both the dance and the spectacular headdresses worn by the participants predate the Conquest, perhaps by hundreds of years.

The headdresses represent the extravagant colors of the quetzal bird, a sacred bird of the Maya. The resplendent quetzal, as ornithologists call it, sports long green tail feathers that grow up to four feet (1.2 meters) long. These feathers were highly prized by many ancient peoples, especially the Aztecs of central Mexico, who demanded quetzal feathers from some towns as part of their tribute payment.
