Teotihuacan and Early Classic Mesoamerica
The Early Classic period in Mesoamerica has been characterized by the appearance of Teotihuacan-related material culture throughout the region. Teotihuacan, known for its monumental architecture and dense settlement, became an urban center around 100 BC and a regional state over the next few centuries, dominating much of the Basin of Mexico and beyond until its collapse around AD 650.

Encuentros y desencuentros
The purpose of our research is to find an echo and resonance in society. Digging an archaeological site, elucidating the internal logic of an indigenous language, or understanding the dynamics of a social group achieve their full meaning when members of society know, receive, and appropriate this information. However, as we write specialized reports and certificates, those who have a mercantile vision of heritage use multimedia tools to spread it. This book unveils a set of strategies, programs and projects driven by interdiscipline (with efforts from archeology, physical anthropology, ethnohistory and paleontology) in favor of the protection and dissemination of cultural heritage. We seek other specialists to join these initiatives to build a collective vision that values ??and protects cultural heritage while involving society in research processes.
