The Mixtec, or the people of Savi ("Nation of the Rain God"), one of the major civilizations of ancient Mesoamerica, made their home in the highlands of Oaxaca, where they resisted both Aztec military expansion and the Spanish conquest. This book presents and interprets the sacred histories narrated in the Mixtec codices, the largest surviving collection of pre-Columbian manuscripts in existence. In these screenfold books, ancient painter-historians chronicled the politics of the Mixtec from approximately a.d. 900 to 1521, portraying the royal families, rituals, wars, alliances, and ideology of the times. By analyzing and cross-referencing the codices, which have been fragmented and dispersed in far-flung archives, the authors attempt to reconstruct Mixtec history. Adding useful interpretation and commentary, Jansen and Perez Jimenez synthesize the large body of surviving documents into the first unified narrative of Mixtec sacred history.

Estudiosa durante varias décadas de distintos grupos indígenas en México, Honduras y el extremo sur de Argentina y Chile, Anne Chapman ha dedicado su vida a una labor que conjuga las diferentes disciplinas antropológicas (etnografía, lingüítica, arquelogía e historia) en un objetivo común : guardar en el repositorio de la memoria humana el testimonio cultural de los pueblos en la voz deloz propios involucrados. Sus andanzas han fructificado en una multitud de artículos y libros publicados en varios idiomas, así como en fonogramas, cortometrajes y exposiciones de fotografías. Con el mismo rigor y claridad que su colega, quince autores participan en este libro refiriendo cada uno sus muy personales andazas. Los ensayos representan valiosas aportaciones a una antropología latinoamericana que tiene como referente fundamental la obra de Anne Chapman y son a la vez invitaciones para retomar la lectura de una de las investigadoras más originales e influyentes en su campo. Este libro busca ir más allá del mero homenaje, constituye el testimonio de una pasión desbordada en andanzas que conducen a los confines más diversos y desconcertantes.

El tema de las dinámicas culturales ha experimentado un desarrollo importante durante los últimos años dentro de la arqueología mesoamericana. Apoyándose a la vez sobre el mejoramiento de los conocimientos acerca de los contenidos culturales de las diferentes entidades, como de sus evoluciones diacrónicas, y gracias a una renovación de los acercamientos teóricos, el estudio de relaciones tan diversas como el comercio y el abastecimiento en materias primas, los intercambios a nivel de la ideología y la circulación de de las ideas, hasta las migraciones de grupos humanos, de nueva cuenta ha vuelto a ser tema de actualidad. Es en particular el caso de las relaciones complejas que se han establecido entre el occidente, el centro-norte, el noroccidente y la cuenca central, que encuentran así nuevas oportunidades de interpretación. E s t e volumen se propone revisar algunos aspectos de estas dinámicas culturales entre el Preclásico y el Epiclásico, a raiz de las investigaciones recientes. Se examinan sucesivamente el periodo Preclásico, c o n contribuciones sobre El Opeño, la cultura de las tumbas de tiro, la cultura Chupicuaro y la cuenca de México, el periodo Clásico, c o n el problema de las relaciones de Teotihuacán conel centro - norte , y por finel periodo Epiclásico con estudios realizados en Jalisco, Zacatecas, Guanajuato y el c e n t r o de México.
