Ø Savor delectable molés and other world-famous Oaxacan dishes in restaurants selected for their high quality and ambiance. Ø Visit the UNESCO World Heritage site of Monte Albán and the famous Mitla palace complex, as well as lesser-known sites, such as Dainzú, Lambityeco, Yagul, and San José Mogote. Ø Enjoy an insider’s view of Zapotec life during lunch hosted by a Zapotec family of weavers in their home. Ø Follow an expert guide for a stroll through Oaxaca’s remarkable colonial center, with stops at Oaxaca’s ornate Santo Domingo Church, festive zócalo, renowned chocolate mills, and vibrant market. Ø Admire the rich and varied crafts of Oaxaca during meetings with a variety of artisans who preserve traditional techniques, including potters, weavers, and wood carvers. Monte Albán 2 ITINERARY Oaxaca’s zócalo Sunday, January 17 Arrival in Oaxaca Quinta Real (Meals Aloft) • Fly on independent flights to Oaxaca (Group transfer will meet the non-stop flight from Houston to Oaxaca on United Airlines.) • Upon arrival in Oaxaca in the evening, check into exterior rooms of the five-star Quinta Real Hotel, and retire for the night (interior rooms are available for an additional charge). Monday, January 18 Oaxaca's Historic Center Quinta Real (B, L, D) • Today, familiarize yourself with the city of Oaxaca, known for the beauty of its architecture, richness of culture, and soft temperate climate. • Begin at the Santo Domingo Church, celebrated as one of Mexico’s great art treasures. Begun in 1552 by the Dominican order, the church’s severe façade is in contrast to the exuberant baroque interior. • Next, enjoy an in-depth guided tour of the Oaxacan Cultures Museum, located in the Santo Domingo ex-convent. This museum houses a vast collection of historical, archaeological, and ethnographic objects, and features over 500 objects of gold, jade, amber, and silver excavated from Tomb Seven at Monte Albán. • Meander through the newest cultural center San Pablo and enjoy a short visit to the Textile Museum. • Following a luncheon of regional specialties in a charming restaurant, walk through the zócalo, the city’s lively historic center. • In the afternoon, explore the colorful city market, and then stop at a renowned chocolate mill for a demonstration of chocolate making and a sample of this rich Oaxacan specialty. • Enjoy a welcome dinner in one of the city’s finest restaurants. 3 ITINERARY Tuesday, January 19 Monte Albán and San José Mogote Quinta Real (B, L, D) • Spend a full morning exploring the dramatic archaeological site of Monte Albán. This capital city of the Zapotec nation was an important ceremonial center and one of the largest Meso-American cities at its peak. Learn about this ancient civilization, which existed from approximately 500 BC to AD 750, through the remains of its great square, palaces, temples, tombs, and ball court. • Enjoy a guided tour of the incomparable artifacts in the museum. • Following lunch, visit the San José Mogote Archaeological site, which was the largest and most important settlement in the Valley of Oaxaca during the early and middle formative periods (ca. 1500-500 BC) of Mesoamerican cultural development. It is considered to be the oldest permanent agricultural village in the Oaxaca Valley and probably the first settlement in the area to use pottery. See the small museum associated with the site. • Enjoy dinner together in a nearby restaurant. Wednesday, January 20 Archaeological Sites at East End of Valley Quinta Real (B, L) • Drive to Mitla and en route stop for a photo stop of a prehistoric rock carving visible from the road that reveals the prehistoric caves of Yagul and Mitla, a UNESCO World Heritage site. • Spend the morning exploring the archaeological site of Mitla, an important Mixtec ceremonial center, comprising various palaces, central squares, and beautiful tombs for royalty and holy men. A major focus of this site is the unique designs, mostly variations of a geometric fretwork, used to decorate the palace walls and other buildings. • At the nearby textile market, examine the hand-woven jackets, tablecloths, and bed covers that are decorated with the ancient designs found at Mitla. • Continue to Santiago Matatlán for a visit to the town’s small archaeological museum. • Continue to Teotitlán del Valle, a Zapotec village famous for its weaving. • Join a Zapotec family of local weavers who will host a luncheon of regional specialties, and then, observe the carding, spinning, and dyeing of natural wool, as well as the weaving of the wool on treadle looms. • Return to Oaxaca for an evening at leisure. 4 ITINERARY Thursday, January 21 Archaeological Sites in Eastern Valley including Lambityeco Quinta Real (B, L, D) • Spend the morning exploring the Yagul remains that stand majestically on a volcanic hilltop. Yagul was an independent city-state that was occupied for about a thousand years and died out around AD 1100 or 1200. The site features the Palace of Six Patios and the second largest ball court in Mesoamerica. • Continue to Lambityeco. The small-excavated portion is a significant part of Yegui, a large buried town dotted with hundreds of unexcavated mounds. Salt making appears to have been the main occupation of the Yegui people during the town’s heyday, around AD 700, and many believe the mounds to be raised leaching beds, still used in Mexico for concentrating brine, which workers then evaporate into salt. In the present restored zone, archaeologists have uncovered Oaxaca’s earliest known temascal (ritual steam house). • Following lunch, drive east to Dainzú, an ancient village that was first occupied 700-600 BC. The architectural style of this site is important and reflects a high artistic quality. The site features a gallery of carved stone bas-reliefs similar in style to the danzante bas-reliefs at Monte Albán. Forty-seven of these represent ball players wearing protective equipment such as helmets, knee-guards and gauntlets and holding a small ball in one hand. • Return to Oaxaca and enjoy the balance of the day at leisure. • Have dinner together in one of the city’s best restaurants. Friday, January 22 Ocotlán Quinta Real (B, L) • Enjoy a full-day excursion into the valley of Oaxaca to discover the wealth and variety of the region’s arts and crafts. • In the Zapotec village of Ocotlán, learn about the late Rodolfo Morales, an internationally celebrated artist who dedicated his resources to restoring Ocotlán. See his magnificent murals in the town hall; view the town’s beautiful church that Morales helped to have restored; and visit the whimsical Popular Arts Museum, which houses outstanding paintings by Morales and a wonderful folk art collection by local artisans. • Enjoy free time to explore the lively and colorful Ocotlán market, particularly lively on a Friday. • At the studio of artist Josefina Aguilar, see her brightly painted ceramic figures that playfully depict everyday life in Mexico. • Also stop in the textile village of Santo Tomás Jalieza, famous for weavers with back strap looms, and observe sashes being woven using this ancient technique. 5 ITINERARY • Following lunch in a delightful restaurant in the countryside, continue to San Martin Tilcajete to see the “fantasy” woodcarvings by village artisans. Gather in the studio of one of the most highly regarded woodcarvers before free time to explore the many studios in the town. • Travel to San Bartolo Coyotopec, known for its black ceramics, and see a private pottery demonstration in a renowned family studio. • The evening is at leisure. Saturday, January 23 Atzompa & Rufino Tamayo Museum Quinta Real (B, D) • This morning, visit the newly opened archaeological site of Atzompa. • Next visit Santa María Atzompa, an important craft village renowned for its production of emerald green-glazed pottery, famous all over Mexico and the world. Stop at the Mercado de Artesanías, a village cooperative for artists, and/or meet with master ceramist Angelica Vasquez Cruz, schedule permitting. • Return to Oaxaca for an afternoon at leisure. • This evening, bid adiós to Oaxaca during a farewell dinner at Casa Oaxaca. Sunday, January 24 U.S.A Return • Following an early breakfast, take a group transfer to the Oaxaca airport to meet United Airlines’ non-stop flight to Houston.

Dainzú-Macuilxóchitl is an expansive settlement that was an important part of the Prehispanic Zapotec tradition. Over 130 man-made terraces were mapped, all dating to the Late Classic period (500-900 A.D.), and a large terrace complex found at the summit of Cerro Danush is interpreted as the civic-ceremonial center of the site during that time. I argue that the Late Classic shift in civic-ceremonial focus away from Cerro Dainzú to Cerro Danush implies direct involvement at the site from the nearby urban center of Monte Albán.

    MITLA 3D: UN ENCUENTRO ENTRE DATOS ARQUEOLÓGICOS, ARTE DIGITAL E INTUICIÓN Ludovic Celle [email protected] RESUMEN Reconstruir la ciudad prehispánica de Mitla, por completo en 3D, permitió explorar hipótesis y percepciones renovadas de un lugar clave de Mesoamérica. La herramienta 3D, mezclando datos duros e imaginación artística, puede contribuir a un entendimiento espacial y sensorial de sitios arqueológicos. Además de la combinación entre arte y elementos científicos, este trabajo de reconstrucción de Mitla tiene la particularidad de estar realizado cien por ciento con software abierto y libre, programas que tienen el potencial de democratizar el acceso a la creación digital profesional con posibilidades infinitas, potencial que merece la atención del mundo arqueológico. PALABRAS CLAVE MItla, MODEladO 3D, INTErprEtaCIÓN, ArtE DIGItal, SOFTWARE LIbrE ABSTRACT Rebuilding the Precolumbian city of Mitla in full details in 3D contributed to the explo- ration of hypotheses and renewed perceptions of a key place in Mesoamerica. The 3D tool, mixed with hard data and imagination by the artist can contribute to a spatial and sensorial understanding of archaeological sites. Besides bringing a mix of science and art within a detailed model, this reconstruction of Mitla is original in the sense that it was built entirely with free open source software, open programs allowing the democratization of the access to professional digital creation with infinite possibilities, a potential that deserves the attention of the archaeological world.

Lindb aSchool of Human Evolution and Social Change, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ 85287, USA bIndependent Scholar, Santa Ana, CA, USA Abstract We describe tombs and ceramic collections in Zapotec style excavated in central Mexico, outside Oaxaca. The most notable are 13 ceramic vessels and objects from the Xoo complex (a.d. 500–800) excavated by José García Payón in Calixtlahuaca (near the city of Toluca), and three Zapotec-style tombs excavated in Los Teteles (near the city of Puebla). We also mention Zapotec remains excavated near Tula, Hidalgo, and tombs in other parts of central Mexico. We briefly explore the implications of these data for our understanding of central Mexico after the fall of Teotihuacan.

Terraciano, Chair My project traces the evolution of the Zapotec cultural practice of guelaguetza, an indigenous sharing system of collaboration and exchange in Mexico, from pre-Columbian and colonial times to the present. Ironically, the term "guelaguetza" was appropriated by the Mexican government in the twentieth century to promote an annual dance festival in the city of Oaxaca that has little to do with the actual meaning of the indigenous tradition. My analysis of Zapotec-language alphabetic sources from the Central Valley of Oaxaca, written from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries, reveals that Zapotecs actively participated in the sharing system during this long period of transformation. My project demonstrates that the Zapotec sharing economy functioned to build and reinforce social networks among households in Zapotec communities.
