Western and Northern Mexican Worlds: Communities, Landscapes, and Connections
Western and northern Mexican contexts (orientation only) · Perfil con revisión de fuentes

Ixtépete and Atemajac built landscapes

Reviewed community and place names are preserved where supported; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

INAH describes architecture with successive modifications; a visible façade is not a complete occupation history. The institutional discussion compares architectural forms with other regions. Style alone cannot decide residents' language or political allegiance.

Valley settlement and urban-pressure context Approximately 400–900 CE in institutional interpretations; construction phases differ Superimposed building phases, architecture and modern protection work Zapopan, Jalisco (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, cave-entrance, private compound or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, farming, water-rights or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting or travel permission is implied.
Resumen

Herramientas, agua, hogares y mundos regionales

Conexiones desérticas, peninsulares, del Pacífico, de tierras altas y del Bajío

Zapopan, Jalisco is modern orientation, not an ancient capital or boundary. Successive platforms imply organized construction, not proof that an outside empire governed every resident.

Organización política y escala comunitaria

Successive platforms imply organized construction, not proof that an outside empire governed every resident. Ixtépete talud-tablero comparisons do not prove Teotihuacan colonization or automatic replacement; modern protection work does not settle land title.

Transformación colonial, patrimonio vivo y recepción moderna

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Archaeological materials do not identify every ancient speaker. Living language communities, self-designations and membership authority remain distinct. Events after 1600 CE and modern research, conservation and stewardship are dated separately from the main historical context.

Building episodes INAH describes architecture with successive modifications; a visible façade is not a complete occupation history.
