Escárcega En La Ruta Del Ferrocarril Del Sureste. Entre Decisiones Atropelladas Y Una Geografía Inhóspita
MIRADA FERROVIARIA, Año 13, No. 38, enero – abril 2020, ISSN: En trámite https://www.miradaferroviaria.mx/escarcega-en-la-ruta-38/ Tierra Ferroviaria Escárcega en la ruta del Ferrocarril del Sureste. Entre decisiones atropelladas y una geografía inhóspita Escárcega on the route of the Southeast Railway. Between hasty decisions and an inhospitable geography Isabel Bonilla Galindo Jefa de Departamento de la Biblioteca Especializada, CEDIF-CNPPCF. Contacto: [email protected] Resumen El general Lázaro Cárdenas emprendió su gira electoral el 8 de diciembre de 1933 y la concluyó el 30 de junio de 1934. Recorrió más de 20 mil kilómetros y de ellos 7,294 corresponden a los trayectos que realizó por ferrocarril. Durante su campaña dio a conocer el Primer Plan Sexenal cuyos objetivos concretos se resumen en: atención a la educación, la agricultura, las obras públicas y las comunicaciones. En materia ferroviaria planteó la integración geográfica del país mediante vías férreas que unieran a las regiones tradicionalmente aisladas. En este contexto el gobierno cardenista autorizó la construcción de un ferrocarril que conectara a los estados de Veracruz, Oaxaca, Tabasco, Chiapas y Campeche al que se le denominó Ferrocarril del Sureste. Al amparo de esta línea férrea se afianzaron algunas localidades en torno a las estaciones del tren, tal como sucedió con Escárcega de Matamoros o nacieron ciudades a las que se les denominó ferrocarrileras, como es el caso de Teapa. En este sentido, el objeto de este artículo, dar un panorama general sobre las vicisitudes que se presentaron durante la construcción de la línea y de qué manera se conformó la ciudad de Escárcega. -
American Horseshoe Crabs, Limulus Polyphemus, in Mexico: Open Possibilities
American Horseshoe Crabs, Limulus polyphemus, in Mexico: Open Possibilities Jaime Zaldı´ var-Rae, Rene´ Elı´ as Sapie´ n-Silva, Martha Rosales-Raya, and H. Jane Brockmann Abstract Little is known about Mexican Limulus polyphemus, the southern- most population of the species. We present an overview of work on Mexican horseshoe crabs, their situation, and perceived threats and opportunities regarding the conservation of the species. Horseshoe crabs occur along the western, northern, and eastern coasts of the Yucata´ n peninsula, and are geneti- cally distinct from populations in the United States. Spawning aggregations and nests are found continuously throughout the year, commonly in protected lagoons where mangrove (Rhizophora mangle, Laguncularia racemosa, Avicen- nia germinans, and Conocarpus erectus) and sea grass (Thalassia testudinum) communities proliferate. Populations are thought to be dwindling since the 1960s and Limulus is listed as ‘‘in danger of extinction’’ in Mexican legislation since 1994. The most important localities are within protected areas. Direct exploitation is not an important threat, but coastline modification (especially of mangrove areas and coastal lagoons) for housing and tourism is a major concern. Additional potential threats are the oil industry and shrimp fishery in the southern Gulf of Mexico, but their effects on horseshoe crab populations have not been assessed. 1 Introduction Knowledge about the biology and ecology of Mexican Limulus polyphemus, the southernmost population of the species, is scant (Escalante et al. 1980; Gomez-´ Aguirre 1980; Bonilla-Gonza´ lez et al. 1986; Anderson and Shuster 2003). This chapter aims at providing an overview of the available information on the biology of horseshoe crabs in Mexico and our perspective on potential threats and opportunities for the study and conservation of these animals in Mexico. -

Environmental Pressures and Population Concentration
AMBIVALENCES AND ASYMMETRIES IN THE URBANIZATION PROCESS IN THE GULF OF MEXICO: ENVIRONMENTAL PRESSURES AND POPULATION CONCENTRATION Cuauhtémoc León and Hipólito Rodríguez FRAMEWORK: A DEFINITION OF THIS SPACE Three different countries surround this great marine water body; human activities both inland and in coastal zones and marine areas have modified, and will continue to modify this space’s biochemical, ecosystemic and, of course, socio-economic conditions. Such activities can be formally identified as the Gulf of Mexico’s economic and social space. From a historical perspective, they have had certain common traits and have perhaps been evolving at different intensities, but at least in a parallel fashion. The pace of changes has left marks shaping the landscape that can be “read,” yet unfortunately, in most instances these comprise an expansion and sequence of deleterious transformations. The boundaries of the Gulf of Mexico and, therefore, of what is considered to be its coastal zone, were defined a priori. Actually, they are of an operational nature so as to be able to deal simultaneously with three dimensions: the terrestrial landscape analyzed as ecoregions; socio-demographic dynamics studied on the basis of municipalities (or counties); and urban cores or cities, which enable us to easily visualize population concentration. Thus, the coastal zone was delimited as a mostly terrestrial strip having municipal boundaries (and therefore jurisdictional ones) and landscape features. As a result, this is not necessarily a region in the economic or geographic sense but rather, most likely, it is composed of asymmetrical, disconnected, and perhaps complementary territorial and political units which at most depend upon one another to a certain degree. -

Una fuente de información para aproximarse a tales aspectos son los depósitos rituales, objeto de este artículo. A través de su estudio y propuestas de in- terpretación buscamos avanzar en la comprensión de la ritualidad maya prehispánica en algunos sitios de Campeche. PALABRAS CLAVE: arqueología, depósito ritual, Campeche. ABSTRACT: The archaeological work in the Maya area have generated information on how developed the ancient Maya people and their everyday and sacred activities. A source of information to access an aspect of daily life and ritual of the ancient Maya are the caches, which are the subject of the work presented here. With the proposed study and interpretation thereof we approach closer to try to understand how it was part of the pre-Hispanic Mayan ritual in Campeche. -

This review outlines the Lamanai our eyes from the forest canopy, from incised stelae example and considers comparable patterns of and from sculptured mask panels. 1l1ese are the great variation in architectural forms of pyramid-temples at signature pieces of Maya artistic production. They other sites in the Maya area. cap the ruins that initially attracted archaeological attention, and they continue to draw world-class As a secondary theme I am concerned with the con tourism to the Maya area. A constant· stream of ceptual role played by the pyramid, and with the vacationers shuffles past these great works, now underlying reasons that impelled the Maya to include cleared and restored. But they are seen merely as such costly and time-consuming features as prominent curiosities touted to sell excursions from Caribbean parts oftheir major temples. It is generally taken more resorts. In ancient times, however, they were certainly or less for granted that Maya pyramids were employed not for holiday amusement; they .were central to the to raise the "temples" at their summits to a civic and political life of Maya communities. Over commanding position of height (see, for example, centuries the Maya invested an enormous amount of Stierlin 1968:96). This view of the structures is time, energy, skill and resources in their production, certainly correct, and the idea has obvious value; I and their functioning is generally acknowledged to suspect, however, that it may not be the whole story. -

On the Escarcega-Chetumal.Highway, and Are Believed to Be Representative of Ancient Rural Settlement of the Rio Bec Region
56 ANCIENT AGRICULTURAL FARMSTEADS IN THE RIO BEC REGION OF YUCATAN Jack D. Eaton Introduction The subject of this report is the description and analysis of Maya farmsteads of Classic period date in the Rio Bec region of Yucatan (Fig. 1). The farmsteads are associated with artificial field ridges and hillside terraces. These probably had both agricultural and non-agricultural functions. Hillside terraces, or ridges, were first reported in the Rio Bec region by Ruppert and Denison (1943: 13, 50) These land features were noted in the southern part of the region and were simply referred to as "check dams. " Ridges and terraces were also noted by me during explorations in the region during 1966-67, and again in 1970 when the ruins of Chicanna were excavated (Eaton 1974a: 51). In 1971 I continued reconnaissance (Eaton Ms.), which coinsided with one of the most ambitious seasons of milpa clearing in the region in modern times. This was a result of a marked increase in the regional population, notably roadside settlements that appeared with the construc- tion of the new trans-peninsula highway (HWY 186). After the milpas were burned, field ridges and hillside terracing suddenly became manifest in nearly every field examined. This clearly demonstrated what was previously suspected; that there had been an intense development of the land surface throughout the region in ancient times. Also noted in the fields, and clearly associated with the land development, were the remains of ancient structures. These included platform mounds and the base walls of small houses. The platforms and the houses were found individually and in groups, and certainly represent farmsteads. -
A Characterization of the Shark Fisheries in Campeche, Mexico By
A Characterization of the Shark Fisheries in Campeche, Mexico by Jessica Ritter Dr. Michael Orbach May 2013 Masters project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Environmental Management degree in the Nicholas School of the Environment of Duke University 2013 ABSTRACT Since the early 1990s, shark landings in the Mexican state of Campeche have declined drastically, mirroring an overall decrease in shark populations across the Gulf of Mexico. Historically, most research on the Campeche shark fisheries has focused on assessing the health of shark populations, with little emphasis placed on understanding the human dimension of these artisanal fisheries. This study begins to fill that knowledge gap through participant observation and informal interviews with fishery participants. Results clarify the organizational structure and the rules-in-use of the fisheries, as well as the attitudes of fishery participants towards government regulations. The characterization will ultimately inform Environmental Defense Fund’s future work to rebuild shark populations in the region. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 4 INTRODUCTION 5 METHODS 7 CHAPTER 1: Fishery Basics 9 1.1 Biophysical Ecology 1.1.1 About the Bay of Campeche ecosystem 9 1.1.2 Shark species prevalence and biology 10 1.2 The Fishery on the Ground: Human Dimensions 1.2.1 Industry landscape and changes 12 1.2.2 Types of shark fisheries and fishing season 13 1.2.3 Fishing gear 15 1.2.4 Shark products and commercialization 16 1.2.5 Fishery structure and organization
