 | | The corn, once it is ground, is pushed off of the end of the metate into the batea. |
 | | I bought it from the artist himself, who had set up a little area in the shade of the Presidencia in Ojinaga, Chihuahua, where he was selling a variety of wares from his village, which is located in the so-called "Copper Canyon" region of southwestern Chihuahua state. |
 | | I also have a lot of old, used bateas, which are very valuable. |
