The Olmeca-Xicallanca of Teotihuacan, Cacaxtla, and Cholula: An Archaeological, Ethnohistorical, and Linguistic Synthesis

By Robert Chadwick

Olmeca-Xicallanca, 'People from the Land of Rubber, People from the Land of Canoes' - the Nahuatl name of these ethnic groups invokes the hot, alluvial coastal plains of Veracruz, Tabasco, and Campeche (Mexico). For almost a century studying the ethnohistoric records on the Olmeca-Xicallanca, scholars have sought answers to the questions of 'who', 'what', 'why', 'when', and 'where' These questions have been by no means easy to answer - this present volume of contributions puts forward a series of answers and possible solutions.
