The ordinary garment of men was a cotton breechcloth wrapped around the
middle, with sometimes a sleeveless shirt, either white or dyed in colors.
The women wore a skirt belted at the waist, and plaited their hair in long
tresses. Sandals were worn by both sexes. Tattooing and head-flattening were
occasionally practised, and the face and body were always painted. The Maya,
then as now, were noted for personal neatness and frequent use of both cold and Mayas dress hot baths.
