Viability of a previous study recommendation, takingĪdvantage of a proposed methodology, to help in the analysis of relevant The objective of this work is to prove the Spanish version of this paper was presented in the Computing InternationalĬongress CIC-2000, IPN, Mexico, November 16/2000. Detailed instructions are included for making more than 60 unique instruments that are suitable for children as young as five years. Texts from poet Octavio Paz and a description from The case is an extraordinary aerophone of black stoneĬollected by the deceased anthropologist Francisco Beverido Pereau, who realized important archaeologicalĭiscoveries and was the photographer of the ' Museoĭe Antropología' of Xalapa, Veracruz. Written for adults, this hands-on guide demonstrates how to make easy musical instruments with children. They gave me a book ' Estética Olmeca', several beautiful pictures of Totonacan clay Took the pictures included in Charles Boiles´sġ965], and he has other important publications.įamily let me look for pictures and studies of aerophones from Gulf Zone in theĪnthropologist's office and library.
