Pantepec is a Totanaca / Otomi town that has left its textile traditions behind. On a visit there looking for textiles in 1994, the town was very modern and orderly with no textiles visible. At the mayors office they directed me to the Mateo’s family. I was lucky to find a complete costume that they were willing to sell.
