This work presents Py-elotl, a suite of tools and resources in Python for processing text in several indigenous languages spoken in Mexico. These resources include parallel corpora, linguistic taggers/analyzers, and orthographic normalization tools. This work aims to develop essential resources to support language pre-processing and linguistic research, and the future creation of more complete downstream applications that could be useful for the speakers and enhance the visibility of these languages. The current version supports language groups such as Nahuatl, Otomi, Mixtec, and Huave. This project is open-source and freely available for use and collaboration
