Therefore the intention of this paper is to make available to scholars material that focuses in the Huasteca region. The book contains ethnohistorical information as well as invaluable economic dates of the area in the twilight of XIXth century. The work was complemented by an ethnographic study to invite to take a first look at the daily life of the Teenek, to see later what changes and permanence have among them.
