A Diachronic Perspective on the Prehispanic Ceramic Tradition of the Valley of Oaxaca

A diachronic perspective on the prehispanic ceramic tradition of the Valley of Oaxaca, including Monte Albán, reveals significant temporal expansions and refinements to the pottery record since the foundational work by Caso, Bernal, and Acosta in 1967. Over five decades, fieldwork and analysis have enhanced the original ceramic typology and chronology, providing new insights into pottery production and extending research issues across three millennia. This synthesis of recent developments establishes a robust foundation for investigating shifts in the region's ceramic complex, offering deeper understanding of its cultural evolution.
