과테말라의 알타 베라파즈 지역에서 원주민들의 민속의상의 하나인 Huipil 재료로 생산되는 반투명의 백생 무명 수직물은 독특한 직조기법과 구성을 보이고 있다. 이에 대한 부분적인 연구는 O'neale 과 Osborne 등에 의하여 이루어 졌으며, 본고에서는 이들 연구를 기초로 이 지역의 Huipil 재료의 직조과정과 기법에 대하여 고찰하였다. 또한 구체적인 직물구조의 분석은 Iowa 주립대학의 직물소장품중 4점의 이지역 Huipil 재료를 실측하여 이들 각각의 전체적인 구조와 기본적인 직조방법, 그리고 무늬를 형상하는 기법에 대하여 검토하엿다. 본 고찰을 통하여 이 지역에서 생산된 Huipil은 대부분 원시적인 형태의 직조기에 의해 완성되었으며 복잡한 무늬를 짤 경우에도 보조적인 도구는 사용되지 않고 특유의 수직기법에 의해 이루어졌음을 밝혓다. 또한 Huipil의 바탕은 plain weave, gauze, 도는 brocade의 변형으로 구성되었으며 바탕과 무늬의 변화는 실의 굵기의 변화로 더욱 강조되어 독특한 효과를 나타내고 있다.
