PESO:

One more before I quit for the day.  The pig belongs to the whole
community.  When he is slaughtered, they will all have fresh pork for a few
days and hang strips of meat above the adobe stove to dry and use to flavor
beans.  This is a Lenca community, the largest indigenous group in
Honduras.  The Lenca own land communally and share the work and the crops.
 They are Catholic but have no priests, only Delegates of the Word.  Most
adults are illiterate but the children go to school through the 6th grade.
