 The rebozo itself shows various influences, which probably come from the various cultures that had contact at that time.There are various indigenous garments that share physical characteristics with the rebozo.They include the ayate, a rough cloth of maguey fibre used to carry cargo, the mamatl, which is a cotton cloth also used to carry objects and which often had a decorative border, and the tilma (used for carrying and as a garment), a cloth best known from the one Juan Diego wore and which bears the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
