About the Book

El juego de pelota de hule mesoamericano, o juego de pelota maya, es una actividad lúdica, fue inventado hace más de cuatro mil años, y se conserva como una tradición viva en lo que fue Mesoamérica. Es un deporte colectivo que se juega en campos de terreno desnudo al aire libre, aunque las canchas de piedra para el juego de pelota se asocian las construcciones monumentales características de esta parte del mundo prehispánico. El juego es la representación de un enfrentamiento guerrero entre dos tribus rivales, en el cual, la pelota hace las veces de lanza o flecha que viaja alternativamente entre un lado y el lado opuesto de la cancha de juego, su objetivo es herir simbólicamente al enemigo. La pelota hecha de látex se golpea con el antebrazo, o con la cadera, en un campo de juego de hasta 120 metros de largo por 1.2 metros de ancho. Aquí cada equipo defiende la mitad del taste como su territorio. Habitualmente se utilizan protecciones para cubrir la parte de cuerpo que se usa para golpear la pelota y que, en el caso de la modalidad de antebrazo, consiste en una faja de tela que cubre la parte del brazo con el que se golpea la pelota, para la modalidad de cadera se utiliza un fajado especial que protege el lado de que se utiliza para impulsar la esférica. El juego consta de dos equipos y cada equipo está formado, en promedio, por tres jugadores de cada lado del terreno de juego. Como actividad cultural el juego es una representación simbólica, tanto de un rito guerrero, como una metáfora del movimiento eterno y continuo de los astros, la pelota representa la caída y puesta del sol, también es símbolo de la unidad y lucha entre fuerzas opuestas que representan el encadenamiento y dualidad de lo que nos hace ser, las eternas sucesiones del día y la noche; la luz y la oscuridad; la vida y la muerte. Hasta hoy, las reglas de juego de pelota precolombino habían permanecido ocultas a la mirada ajena, a pesar de esfuerzos de investigadores por llegar al corazón de esta mágica actividad milenaria y en este libro se muestra un esfuerzo para su rescate.
