El río y los manglares en el paisaje cultural de la Cuenca del Papaloapan

A unique cultural landscape emerges from the interplay between diverse societies and the natural environment of the Papaloapan River Basin, particularly around Tlacotalpan. This study reveals how multicultural communities have adapted to the region's lacustrine-based ecosystem over millennia, utilizing resources from rivers, lagoons, and wetlands for subsistence while leaving a significant anthropic footprint. Through complementary anthropological and ecological perspectives, researchers analyze the interdependence between human societies and their environment, highlighting the continuous construction of biocultural heritage. The findings underscore the importance of this ecosystem for sustainable development and its role in shaping a distinct sociocultural framework.
