Weird Dancers of the Tarasco Indian tribe in Mexico. Each year, in the early part of October, the Tarasco Indian tribe living around lake Patzcuaro, State of Michoacan, Mexico, stage their annual dances where competition becomes keen and feet become nimble. The dances are primarily pre-conquest in style, each tribe exercising its particular like. This weird photograph shows a group in a dance called "The dance of the little old ones".
