WOLLIES - made in the mountains of Chiapas


Woolie "FROGGY" - handmade of handspun, hand died textiles in the mountains of Chiapas

The Indians of Chiapas are descendants of the agrarian Mayas. Their culture is quite distinct from the Mexican Nationals'. Their native languages are primarily the Mayan dialects, Tzotzil and Tzeltal; they look different and their idealogies are different. They are of an entirely different ethnicity.
