content: The rain capes # E75954 - 6 appear on a number of lists in the accession file, and are described in slightly varying ways on different lists. One list identifies them as being from Chaculá, and indicates they are worn by the Ixtatan tribe of Indians from the western parts of the Department of Huehuetenango, Guatemala. Another list identifies them as used by the Ixtatan and other indians in the Department of Huehuetenango, Guatemala. "Ixtatan" may possibly refer to the Northern Chuj (Ixtatán) Maya, from the area of Western Huehuetenango, including San Mateo Ixtatán?
