It is a high-ranking job that is not recognized under any official registry. The "tlakualera" appears in this mural in commemoration of the women who have always protected their community, especially those women who have encouraged, expedited, supported, and actively participated in the battles that have made Xoxocotla the town it is today. The mural is a manifesto of the indispensable presence of women in the battles.
