<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 1167279, member: 8267"]Having spent some time with my books on Guatemalan weaving, I did find some examples of similar human images, with the hats. So I am leaning more toward Guatemalan in origin. It may have been designed to be a poncho - with the center diamond where there might have been an opening for the wearer's head, and the figures reversed so that they would appear upright front and back. It appears to have some age.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
