Totonac Summary

North American Indians of east-central Mexico. Some live on cool, rainy high mesas, others in the hot, humid lowlands.

Both groups are farmers, but the highlanders sometimes engage in peddling and wage labour as well and often work on lowland farms in the off-season. Most farm their own land and also perform required labour on land collectively owned by the village. They profess Roman Catholicism but have adapted it to their traditional beliefs.
