Introduction Since the detection of a new type of SARS-COV-2 virus in the city of Wuhan, China, Received: 8 June 2021 prevalent studies of different types have been carried out by [1,2]. The use of wastewaters Accepted: 8 August 2021 in prevalence was conducted first for SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV [3], since prevalence is a Published: 13 August 2021 metric that accurately tracks the behavior of a pandemic. The SARS-CoV-2 virus is the etiological agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral Because the virus uses the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE2) as a receptor to enter with regard to jurisdictional claims in human cells [4] and there is high expression of ACE2 messenger RNA in the gastrointestinal published maps and institutional affil- system ([5–7]). This evidence supports the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 replication in the iations. gastrointestinal tract [8]. Some clinical studies reported prolonged fecal shedding of SARS-CoV-2 RNA for up to seven weeks after the first onset of symptoms ([6,9]) or other body fluids [10]. Another study reported that viral RNA could be detected in stool in 81.8% of cases [11]. Copyright: © 2021 by the authors.

The presence conditions of the Creative Commons of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater samples is already confirmed by studies from different Attribution (CC BY) license (https:// × creativecommons.org/licenses/by/ countries ([1,9,13]).

The presence of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in wastewater makes it possible to utilize it as a surveillance tool for invasion, prevalence, molecular epidemiology, and possible eradication of the virus in a community [8]. For example, ([13]) reported the prevalence level of SARS-CoV-2 by measuring the viral RNA copies quantified by the RT-qPCR technique found from sewage in a basin of Australia. The wastewater surveillance and Monte Carlo data suggested a measure of the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection of 9.6% in the studied basin over six days. The increasing severity of the pandemic could be related to the lack of adequate testing trials to quickly and accurately identify patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 [15]. In addition, asymptomatic and pre-asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infected patients are highly contagious and, given the lack of appropriate screening assays, many SARS-CoV-2 infected patients have had contact with uninfected individuals before being identified for home isolation or hospitalization [16]. Wastewater-based epidemiology of human viruses can be a useful tool for population-scale monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 prevalence and epidemiology to help prevent further spread of the disease, particularly within urban centers [17]. This study aimed to analyze SARS-CoV-2 viral residues in wastewater from 5 mu- nicipalities found in metropolitan areas (Pachuca de Soto, Mineral de la Reforma, Tula de Allende, Tizayuca and Tepeapulco) of the great importance of the State of Hidalgo (northeast of Mexico City). Through its detection and quantification using the RT-qPCR technique for modeling the results using the Monte Carlo model to estimate the number of infected people in the study areas and the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2. 2. Case Study The study area was limited to five municipalities located northeast of Mexico City, in the State of Hidalgo, where five central metropolitan municipalities were chosen: Pachuca de Soto, Mineral de la Reforma, Tula de Allende, Tizayuca, and Tepeapulco. These munici- palities are home to an essential proportion of the total population of the State of Hidalgo. For practical terms, these five municipalities have been named as follows, respectively: “Municipality in the Main Metropolitan Area of the State of Hidalgo (MMHS)”, “Munici- pality on the East Side of the Main Metropolitan Area of the State of Hidalgo (MEMHS)”, “Municipality in the West with Predominant Food and Chemistry Industry (MWFC)”, “Municipality in the North of Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MNMC)” and “Municipality in the East with Predominant Metal-Mechanic Industry (MWFC)”. Data number of infected and the population for the year 2020 and the place taken at the state level are presented in Table1. Table 1.

A series of architectonic elements were uncovered, with a spatial distribution which represents the importance and meaning that a palace complex had for Toltec society. These excavations confirmed the existence of this palace as originally was proposed by the archaeologist Jorge R. Acosta during his first investigations. Thanks to the support of the Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies, we were able to achieve a better and greater knowledge concerning the area which we explored. These contributions, which form part of my thesis investigations, will help us to understand the cultural and social dynamics that took place in this building complex, thus relating these processes to other sectors of the precinct during different times of its occupation. This study also presents for the first time detailed information concerning an Early Postclassic palace complex in the Basin of Mexico.

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. 23 Unplanned reuse of wastewater for human consumption: The Tula Valley, Mexico Blanca Jiménez 23.1 INTRODUCTION In irrigation, water is frequently used with low efficiencies (< 50%), seldom realizing that the “lost” water often recharges aquifers that are being used for several purposes. This results in unplanned water reuse together with concerns that depend on the quality of the irrigating water. This situation is illustrated by the Tula Valley case study that shows how an “inefficient” use of wastewater turned out to be a successful, though unplanned, example of water reuse in a semi-arid area. Environmental and economic conditions were dramatically improved while a new drinking water source was provided. However, in order to maximize the advantages while reducing future risks, special management – described in this chapter – is required. Payne was the first to report, in 1975, that 90-100% of the aquifer in Tula Valley was formed by Mexico City’s wastewater. Later, in 1995, the British Geological Survey and the National Water Commission (BGS-CNA, 1998) quantified the phenomenon as at least 2 194 560 m3/d (25.4 m3/s).

Sanders Fernando López Aguilar Patricia Fournier Escuela Nacional de Antropología e Historia RESUMEN : El enfoque y el modelo metodológico aplicado por William T. Sanders a la cuenca de México y aplicado al Valle del Mezquital, han permitido conocer algunas dinámicas socioculturales y el tipo de población que pudo haberse establecido en diferentes periodos de tiempo en esta región. En el Preclásico existieron pequeños asentamientos con influencia Chupícuaro y Ticoman, pero, aparentemente, la región se encontraba despoblada; durante el periodo Clásico se inició el poblamiento en el noroccidente por los grupos Xajay, con posibles herencias de Chupícuaro- Mixtlan, mientras que los grupos de filiación teotihuacana, posiblemente accediendo por el sureste del Valle, fundaron cabeceras en las inmediaciones de Tula. Para el periodo Epiclásico se abandonaron los sitios teotihuacanos y se desarrollaron sistemas autónomos vinculados con Coyotlatelco, mientras que los asentamientos Xajay permanecieron ocupados, en especial sus centros cívico-ceremoniales.

  • Changes and Continuities in Ritual Practice at Chechem Ha Cave, Belize
    FAMSI © 2010: Esperanza Elizabeth Jiménez García Sculptural-Iconographic Catalogue of Tula, Hidalgo: The Stone Figures Research Year: 2007 Culture : Toltec Chronology : Post-Classic Location : México, Hidalgo Site : Tula Table of Contents Abstract Resumen Introduction The Tula Archaeological Zone The Settlement Tula's Sculpture 1 The Conformation of the Catalogue Recording the Materials The Formal-architectural Classification Architectural Elements The Catalogue Proposed Chronological Periods Period 1 Period 2 Period 3 Acknowledgments List of Figures Sources Cited Abstract The goal of this study was to make a catalogue of sculptures integrated by archaeological materials made of stone from the Prehispanic city of Tula, in the state of Hidalgo, Mexico. A total of 971 pieces or fragments were recorded, as well as 17 panels or sections pertaining to projecting panels and banquettes found in situ . Because of the great amount of pieces we found, as well as the variety of designs we detected both in whole pieces and in fragments, it was necessary to perform their recording and classification as well. As a result of this study we were able to define the sculptural and iconographic characteristics of this metropolis, which had a great political, religious, and ideological importance throughout Mesoamerica. The study of these materials allowed us to have a better knowledge of the figures represented, therefore in this study we offer a tentative periodic scheme which may reflect several historical stages through which the city's sculptural and architectural development went between AD 700-1200. Resumen El objetivo de este trabajo, fue la realización de un catálogo escultórico integrado por materiales arqueológicos de piedra que procedieran de la ciudad prehispánica de Tula, en el estado de Hidalgo, México.
