Native Mayan Hammocks Available Online
Hand-woven in the Yucatan by descendants of the Mayan Indians, exotic Mayan hammocks are considered the most comfortable hammocks on earth. Hammocks.com offers a large selection of the Mayan hammocks in striking, vivid colors and a range of sizes. These hand made hammocks are said to be dangerously comfortable. Hand woven hammocks are standard items in homes in the Yucatan. Hammocks are said to have arrived in the Yucatan from the Caribbean less than two centuries before the Spanish Conquest, and are not part of Classic Era Mayan Civilization. Hammocks are made in villages surrounding the capital city Merida. Hammocks hold such a strong place in the hearts of Yucatecans, that even the most humble of homes have hammock hooks in the walls. The Most Comfortable Hammock On EarthEvery day thousands of people continue to sit, read, unwind, sway, nap and make love in these vivid hand made hammocks crafted by the Mayan people in Southern Mexico. Hanging a Mayan hand woven hammock is easy if you have two trees or two walls about 12 to 15 feet apart. Alternatively, you can get a portable hammock stand that allows you to carry your hammock wherever you want it. The written history of Mayan hand made hammocks comes from the early Spanish explorers who ran into hammocks wherever they went. No one is sure who first invented the hammock or how it was transported, but by the time Cortes reached modern Mexico, hammocks were plentiful. In the Mayan Civilization hammocks were part of everyday life.
