* * *♦ adjtextile♦ nmtextile♦ nfRP textile millTEXTILES INDÍGENASIn Latin America, many indigenous people still manufacture their traditional textiles by hand, as they did in pre-Columbian times. Made almost exclusively by women, these textiles include “molas” (embroidery from Guatemala and Panama), “huipiles” (shawls from southern Mexico and Guatemala) and “aguayos” (alpaca wool shawls from Bolivia and Peru). “Molas” are cloth panels made of brightly coloured pieces of fabric sewn together to depict animals or a landscape. They can then be used to decorate colourful traditional blouses. “Huipiles” and “aguayos” are woven on looms with a narrow geometrical border and sometimes show ritual animals and objects, or even entire stories. In pre-Columbian times such textiles were worn as ceremonial costumes, given as gifts, offered up to the gods and buried with the dead. Today they are used in everyday accessories, such as blankets, trimmings, handbags and shoes, and “huipiles” and “aguayos” are used for carrying loads (and babies).* * *I adj textile atrII mpl:textiles textiles* * *textil adj & nm: textile* * *textil adj textile -

5 poncho
(Sp. model spelled same [ponfo], of uncertain origin, perhaps from the Spanish adjective poncho, a variant of pocho 'discolored')A cloak consisting of a blanket (or more recently a square piece of oiled cloth, rubber, or nylon) with a hole in the middle for the head to fit through. The DRAE describes it as a square or rectangular blanket made from sheep wool, alpaca, vicuña, or any other woven material, with an opening in the center for the head. The garment covers the shoulders and generally hangs to the waist or lower.Alternate form: ponchar.
