The Totonac /ˌtoʊtoʊˈnɑːk/ people resided in the eastern coastal and mountainous regions of Mexico at the time of the Spanish arrival in 1519. Today they reside in the states of Veracruz Puebla and Hidalgo. They are one of the possible builders of the Pre-Columbian city of El Tajín and further maintained quarters in Teotihuacán (a city which they claim to have built). Until the mid-19th century they were the world’s main producers of vanilla.
