Craft production plays a large part in the economies of several Eastern Otomi communities. The Otomi villages in area of Tenango de Doria region are well known for their colorful, decorative embroidered textiles. The Tenango region is located in the Sierra Tepehua- Otomi of the State of Hidalgo, named for the two indigenous groups that cohabitate the region. The Otomi are the fifth largest indigenous group in Mexico. It is believed that the original designs for these textiles comes from ancient wall paintings located on the cliffs outside of San Nicolas, Tenango.
