Este libro es un informe sobre las excavaciones en el sitio del periodo azteca de Yautepec, en el estado mexicano de Morelos. Las excavaciones se centraron en las estructuras domesticas, particularmente su arquitectura y los depositos ricos de basuras asociados. La mayoria de los residentes vivian en pequenas casas a nivel del suelo construidas con ladrillos de adobe, mientras que las elites vivian en complejos mas grandes y elevados con una arquitectura mas lujosa. Ademas de las descripciones de las excavaciones y una nueva cronologia detallada, el volumen incluye descripciones detalladas de vasijas y objetos de ceramica, herramientas de obsidiana, herramientas de piedra de moler y otros materiales. Tambien se informan los resultados de estudios quimicos de ceramica, obsidiana y artefactos metalicos, asi como estudios de restos oseos humanos de enterramientos. Este informe arroja luz sobre los patrones de desigualdad y clase social, el comercio a larga distancia y las respuestas a la conquista azteca, al nivel del hogar. Es uno de los informes mas completos publicados hasta la fecha en las excavaciones de un sitio del periodo azteca.Este volumen es parte de un conjunto de dos volumenes: ISBN 9781407323794 (Volumen I); ISBN 9781407353586 (Volumen II); ISBN 9781407316895 (Conjunto de ambos volumenes).

This book is a report on excavations at the Aztec-period site of Yautepec, in the Mexican state of Morelos. Excavations focused on domestic structures, particularly their architecture and associated rich midden deposits. Most residents lived in small ground-level houses built of adobe bricks, while elites lived in larger, raised compounds with more luxurious architecture. In addition to descriptions of the excavations, and a new detailed chronology, the volume includes detailed descriptions of ceramic vessels and objects, obsidian tools, ground-stone tools, and other materials. The results of chemical sourcing of ceramics, obsidian, and metal artifacts is also reported, as well as studies of human skeletal remains from burials. This report sheds light on patterns of inequality and social class, long-distance trade, and responses to Aztec conquest, at the level of the household. It is one of the most complete reports yet published on excavations at an Aztec-period site.This volume is part of a two volume set: ISBN 9781407323794 (Volume I); ISBN 9781407353586 (Volume II); ISBN 9781407316895 (Set of both volumes).
