Paquimé / Casas Grandes: adobe urbanism and regional exchange

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

UNESCO records residential, workshop and storage spaces in a substantial earthen-built settlement. INAH presents different interpretations of development and Mesoamerican relationships; invasion is not established merely by comparison.

Earthen urban and regional exchange context Approximately 700–1475 CE broader sequence; major urban phase fourteenth–fifteenth centuries CE Adobe architecture, workshops, storage, settlement layout and comparative material evidence Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chihuahua, Mexico (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, 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.
Resumo

Água, casas, paisagens ligadas e evidências

Conexões de planaltos, fluviais, desérticas e fronteiras

Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chihuahua, Mexico is a modern orientation, not an ancient capital or boundary. Urban building, production and exchange required organized work; the reach and form of regional authority remain debated.

Organização política e escala comunitária

Urban building, production and exchange required organized work; the reach and form of regional authority remain debated. Shared objects do not prove foreign elite invasion; neither hierarchical civilization language nor a vanished-people narrative is adopted as fact.

Transformação posterior, património vivo e recepção moderna

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Casas Grandes is an archaeological and geographic label, not proof of one ancient language or automatic modern ancestry. Later colonial, research and stewardship events are dated separately from the main archaeological context.

Urban layout UNESCO records residential, workshop and storage spaces in a substantial earthen-built settlement.
