Spinning Cotton Mexico

This photo from an out-of-print book shows a Mazatec woman spinning brown cotton (coyuche) in San Bartolome Ayautla, a community in the Mazateca Baja region of Oaxaca Mexico. The photo was probably taken in the 1960's, and I don't think that coyuche is grown any longer in this area
