Sumario:This article addresses the symbolic burden that rural populations maintain in the XV Meseta Comiteca Tojolabal region of the state of Chiapas based on the ethnographic study among residents of the Francisco Sarabia ejido around the pilgrimage they carry out in honor of the Virgin Corazón de María, same that culminates in the archaeological zone of Tenam Puente. This study plays an important role in the current configuration of the appropriation of indigenous and peasant territories in the XXI century, since it is one of the few experiences in Chiapas where rural populations make use of these institutionalized spaces (archaeological zones) for the realization of rituals with an agricultural sense. The methodological route that guided the research work that is presented here is based on qualitative research, particularly from ethnography, when developing a descriptive-interpretive record of the pilgrimage carried out by the residents of the ejido.
