The maguey was also very common and was fermented and used in pulque.

Shopping

Tlaxcala is one of the states with the widest variety in handcrafts in all of Mexico. They originate from pre-Hispanic times, product of a combination of European elements and Mexican artistic creations in such things as textiles made on back-strap looms. Using traditional techniques implies hand-weaving fibers, making them pliable and dyeing them with vegetable dyes. Luckily, the process has been passed down from generation to generation and now we can enjoy a very diverse and much appreciated workmanship.
