Recent Investigations at Tula Chico, Tula, Hidalgo
Recent excavations at Tula Chico, the monumental center for Tula's earliest settlement, revealed a long and complex history of occupation, beginning with its initial settlement in the Middle Classic period by Coyotlatelco peoples, when much of the region was under Teotihuacan's direct control. During the Epiclassic period, a program of monumental construction began that developed the monumental complex seen today over a period of about 200 years.…
Revised Chronology and Settlement History of Tula and the Tula Region
This article offers a revision of the chronology and settlement history of Tula, Hidalgo, synthesizing information obtained from numerous investigations and 68 radiocarbon and seven archaeomagnetic dates. Tula Chico's earliest settlement appeared while the region was under the control of Teotihuacan as one of many hilltop Coyotlatelco settlements in the region. The monumental center at Tula Grande did not appear until after Tula grew to power, pr…

Tula and the Toltecs
Tula, Hidalgo, was one of several sites that rose to prominence during the Epiclassic period after the demise of Teotihuacan, and during the Early Postclassic period it was probably the largest and most influential center in central Mexico. For over a century various scholars have argued that Tula was the legendary Tollan (“place of reeds”), which, according to Aztec and other indigenous sources, was the capital of the Toltec civilization that do…

High-Precision Trace-Element Characterization of Major Mesoamerican Obsidian Sources and Further Analyses of Artifacts from San Lorenzo Tenochtitlan, Mexico
High-precision trace-element analyses for 208 geological samples representing 25 mesoamerican obsidian sources were obtained using instrumental neutron-activation analysis to measure a total of 28 elements per sample. These are the first detailed chemical studies ever published for many of the source areas. Especially intensive analyses were made for six sources in the states of Veracruz and Puebla in Mexico from the region of Pico de Orizaba vol…
Obsidian Trade at San Lorenzo Tenochtitlan, Mexico: Analysis of obsidian artifacts emphasizes the role of trade in the rise of Olmec civilization.
San Lorenzo Tenochtitlan, an Olmec site which flourished 1150900 B.C. was excavated by Yale University and the Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia. Obsidian tools from the site, and obsidian from 25 Mexican and Guatemalan sources were analyzed by x-ray emission spectroscopy for iron, manganese, rubidium and zirconium. 25 samples were also analyzed by neutron activation for manganese and sodium. X-ray fluorescence analysis was used to co…
