The Antiguas is the Otomi term for Guide Network. The Antiguas are More-Than-Human Beings who hang around to guide and assist. They are "supernatural humans who have the closest social relationship with humans."[1] Zidqhmy help shamans in their healing work. Zidqhmy are MTHBs that often function as part of an individual's Guide Network.
