Triqui social structure
The Triqui social structure is organized around extended family groups called "nuhs," which serve as fundamental social units. Each nuh is led by elders who uphold traditions and mediate conflicts, fostering strong kinship ties. The community values cooperation, respect for ancestors, and collective decision-making. Social roles are often inherited, and maintaining harmony within nuhs and the broader community is essential. This structure emphasizes interconnectedness, with individual identity linked to family and community, ensuring cultural continuity and social stability.
