tilma
A "tilma" is a traditional cloak or garment made from woven fabric, commonly associated with the indigenous peoples of Mexico. It is typically worn by men and is characterized by its rectangular shape, often featuring vibrant colors and intricate designs. The tilma serves both practical and cultural purposes, providing warmth and protection from the elements.
One of the most famous tilmas is that of Juan Diego, which is said to have displayed the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. This tilma, made of coarse fabric, has become a significant religious symbol and is housed in the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City.
