Studies are shown on many aspects of migration, population development, human genetics, archaeology, anthropology, biology, linguistics, and a broad range of genomic studies on migration and cultural and social structures in the past and present. Human migration started in Africa spread to Asia and other regions of our globe and was assessed by studies on ancient and contemporary mtDNA sequencing distributed from the artic to South America. The evolutionary consequences of the settlement of the Aleutian Islands, Samoyedic-speaking populations from Siberia; early human migrations in Gabon Africa, the Republic of Sakha (formerly, Yakutia), African migration to Europe during the twenty-first century, and the Y-chromosome diversity in Aztlan descendants associated with the History of Central Mexico. Human migration influenced by cultural practices was evaluated by biocultural approaches to migration and urbanization in the Peruvian Amazonia, the Ch'orti' Maya Diaspora in Search of Fertile Forests and Political Security. Evidence of human migration in the Puyil Cave (Puxcatán, Tabasco), the Maya and Zoques to the Mountain Region of Tabasco, Chiapas, Campeche, Quintana Too and Yucatan (from linguistic and archaeological perspectives) are also considered. It documented the migration of specific populations in the geographic distribution of diseases such as Dengue, and Mycobacterium. Human Migration : Biocultural Perspective explains human migration as a major contributor to globalization that facilitates gene flow and the exchange of cultures and ideas.

The Bioarchaeology of Space and Place investigates variations in social identity among the ancient Maya by focusing on individuals and small groups identified archaeologically by their inclusion in specific, discrete mortuary contexts or by unusual mortuary treatments. Utilizing archaeological, biological and taphonomic data from these contexts, the studies employ a variety of methodological approaches to reconstruct aspects of individuals’ life-course and mortuary pathways. Following this, specific mortuary behaviors are discussed in relation to their local or regional cultural setting using relevant archaeological, ethnohistoric, and/or ethnographic data in an effort to interpret their meaning within the broader social, political and economic contexts in which they were carried out. This volume covers a number of topics that are currently being debated in Maya archaeology, including identification and discussion of the role and extent of human sacrifice in Maya culture, the use of ancestors for maintaining political power, the mortuary use of caves by both elites and non-elites, ethnic distinctions within urban areas and the extent of movement of people between communities. Importantly, the papers in this volume attempt to test and move beyond static, dichotic categories that are often employed in mortuary studies in an effort to better understand the complex ways in which the Maya conceptualized and manipulated social identity. This type of nuanced case-study approach that incorporates historical, archaeological and theoretical contextualization is becoming increasingly important in the field of bioarchaeology, providing valuable sources of data where small, diverse samples impede populational approaches.

The Pre-Columbian Maya were organized into a series of independent kingdoms or polities rather than unified into a single state. The vast majority of studies of Maya states focus on the apogee of their development in the classic period, ca. 250-850 C.E. As a result, Maya states are defined according to the specific political structures that characterized classic period lowland Maya society. The Origins of Maya States is the first study in over 30 years to examine the origins and development of these states specifically during the preceding preclassic period, ca. 1000 B.C.E. to 250 C.E. Attempts to understand the origins of Maya states cannot escape the limitations of archaeological data, and this is complicated by both the variability of Maya states in time and space and the interplay between internal development and external impacts. To mitigate these factors, editors Loa P. Traxler and Robert J. Sharer assemble a collection of essays that combines an examination of topical issues with regional perspectives from both the Maya area and neighboring Mesoamerican regions to highlight the role of interregional interaction in the evolution of Maya states. Topics covered include material signatures for the development of Maya states, evaluations of extant models for the emergence of Maya states, and advancement of new models based on recent archaeological data. Contributors address the development of complexity during the preclassic era within the Maya regions of the Pacific coast, highlands, and lowlands and explore preclassic economic, social, political, and ideological systems that provide a developmental context for the origins of Maya states.

This volume brings together a range of contributors with different and hybrid academic backgrounds to explore, through bioarchaeology, the past human experience in the territories that span Mesoamerica. This handbook provides systematic bioarchaeological coverage of skeletal research in the ancient Mesoamericas. It offers an integrated collection of engrained, bioculturally embedded explorations of relevant and timely topics, such as population shifts, lifestyles, body concepts, beauty, gender, health, foodways, social inequality, and violence. The additional treatment of new methodologies, local cultural settings, and theoretic frames rounds out the scope of this handbook. The selection of 36 chapter contributions invites readers to engage with the human condition in ancient and not-so-ancient Mesoamerica and beyond. The Routledge Handbook of Mesoamerican Bioarchaeology is addressed to an audience of Mesoamericanists, students, and researchers in bioarchaeology and related fields. It serves as a comprehensive reference for courses on Mesoamerica, bioarchaeology, and Native American studies.

The artificial shaping of the skull vault of infants expresses fundamental aspects of crafted beauty, of identity, status and gender in a way no other body practice does. Combining different sources of information, this volume contributes new interpretations on Mesoamerican head shaping traditions. Here, the head with its outer insignia was commonly used as a metaphor for designating the “self” and personhood and, as part of the body, served as a model for the indigenous universe. Analogously, the outer “looks” of the head and its anatomical constituents epitomized deeply embedded worldviews and longstanding traditions. It is in this sense that this book explores both the quotidian roles and long-standing ideological connotations of cultural head modifications in Mesoamerica and beyond, setting new standards in the discussion of the scope, caveats, and future directions involved in this study. The systematic examination of Mesoamerican skeletal series fosters an explained review of indigenous cultural history through the lens of emblematic head models with their nuanced undercurrents of religious identity and ethnicity, social organization and dynamic cultural shift. The embodied expressions of change are explored in different geocultural settings and epochs, being most visible in the centuries surrounding the Maya collapse and following the cultural clash implied by the European conquest. These glimpses on the Mesoamerican past through head practices are novel, as is the general treatment of methodology and theoretical frames. Although it is anchored in physical anthropology and archaeology (specifically bioarchaeology), this volume also integrates knowledge derived from anatomy and human physiology, historical and iconographic sources, linguistics (polisemia) and ethnography. The scope of this work is rounded up by the transcription and interpretation of the many colonial eye witness accounts on indigenous head treatments in Mesoamerica and beyond.

Los ensayos que conforman este volumen son producto de un ejercicio de reflexión colectiva, ¿a qué obedecen las palabras “regiones”, “indígenas” y “etnografía” en el título de uno de los proyectos de mayor envergadura en el quehacer etnográfico mexicano de los últimos veinte años: el Programa Nacional Etnografía de las Regiones Indígenas de México? Escudriñar en el título, implica reabrir los debates iniciales en los que se cimentó un programa que buscaba resarcir las limitaciones de la etnografía producida en México.

Este libro ofrece una minuciosa mirada histórica y etnográfica sobre las experiencias diversas que tuvieron los habitantes de la zona devastada por el volcán El Chichonal –en su mayoría de origen zoque del noroeste de Chiapas– frente a su erupción en 1982. Las microhistorias, en tanto reducción a escala para el estudio de los impactos del fenómeno natural, muestran las múltiples formas en las que las personas lo vivieron y la respuesta social habida en lo inmediato y a largo plazo. La obra tiene la virtud de poner de relieve el carácter heterogéneo de los damnificados en tanto sujetos con agencia, es decir, sujetos diversos que actuaron inconsciente o conscientemente bajo decisiones colectivas o individuales para sobrevivir a la adversidad y construir su devenir

Este cuarto número de la revista contiene la praxis de compañeros y compañeras de variospaíses de nuestra América. Abrimos la revista en la sección de Academia militante, con untexto que refiere a un hecho que ha marcado a la sociedad mexicana y puso en evidenciaa nivel internacional el nivel de violencia ejercido por el Estado: la desaparición de 43estudiantes de la Escuela Normal Rural (ENR) “Isidro Burgos” de Ayotzinapa y el asesinatode 6 personas, el 26 de septiembre de este año. En su artículo, Beatriz Cadena da cuentade cómo este hecho no es aislado, sino que forma parte de una política deamedrentamiento de las ENR y sus estudiantes, dejando claro que fue, y ha sido, desde elEstado que se han orquestado estos ataques. En la sección de Conferencias y Entrevistas presentamos una conferencia de CatherineWalsh que aborda de manera crítica la apropiación del concepto den interculturalidadpor parte del gobierno ecuatoriano para vaciarlo de contenido. El sustento de suargumento se encuentra en el análisis de las Unidades Educativas del Milenio, las Ciudadesdel Milenio y las propuestas de enmiendas referentes a los conocimientos colectivos. Walshmuestra que las políticas públicas del Estado ecuatoriano, a pesar de declararseplurinacional e intercultural, continúan fundamentándose en la modernización, laurbanización y la interculturalidad funcional. Esta conferencia resulta una invitación aanalizar las prácticas de los discursos de interculturalidad.
