"This volume shows, in an accessible and scientific way, a summary of the results of decades of archaeological and ethnohistorical research on the emergence, development and change of the societies that inhabited the Mixteca Alta of Oaxaca. The chapters of the volume are presented chronologically to reconstruct the pre-Hispanic history of the Mixteca, also known as the Ñuu Savi (Place of the Rain) region in the Mixtec language that bears the same name. The book begins by presenting the evidence that exists around the first settlers of the area, the emergence of agricultural and sedentary communities, and the subsequent development of stratified, complex and urban societies. Then, the patterns of political change and regional exchange are described, as well as the rise and fall of small political units; self-recognized as wildebeest or yuhuitayu at the time of European contact. In addition, the volume presents the reader with up-to-date information on the Mixtec communities that have endured to this day, demonstrating their dynamism and resilience in the face of an ever-changing reality." --
