MAYAN HAMMOCKS NOW IN!


That's right! We got our first shipment of Mayan Hammocks and let me warn you, they are unbelievably comfortable and extremely well made! That's because the people who make them have perfected the art of hammock making with over 2,000 years of experience! Our hammocks are made by a group of about thirty indigenous families from Yucatan, Mexico. In their traditional lifestyle, parents and grandparents pass down their hammock-weaving trade to younger generations. It's an incredible thought that the same hammocks made today in Mexico, started with the original Mayans a few thousand years ago! The Mayan civilization is one to be admired. The Mayan people are well-known for their fully developed written language, art, architecture, astronomical observations, mathematical calculations, calendar, and for their amazingly comfortable hammocks.
