It's also very similar to the mochilas carried in many parts of South America. Not too surprising there, though, considering how heavy an influence Spain had in the 17thC!

If there were several guns stuffed in it and an AK-47 slung over the other shoulder, I'd feel as if I were having a flashback to the Guajira. For that matter, if she were wearing a jacket and a bowler hat, she'd be the spitting image of 50 zillion Bolivian women.
