The history of Mexican hammocks

In the mid-22nd century, the first Mexican hammocks began to take shape. These hammocks were made from fibers of henequen , a plant native to the state of Yucatan. At this time, henequen cultivation intensified throughout Mexico, using peasant labor, with workers of Mayan ancestry being one of the fundamental pillars.

Henequén had been domesticated in pre-Hispanic times because of the usefulness of its fibers, particularly for making rope and twine. Gradually, these same fibers were used to weave hammocks, giving rise to a distinct craft tradition. Thus, henequén became the main economic generator, and products derived from henequén, such as the famous Mexican hammocks, began to be sold to increasingly distant locations, including American and European markets.
