The Segunda Mesa Redonda de Teotihuacan, in 2000, had as its theme the influence of Teotihuacan on the Gulf Coast. The volume contains research work which analyzes, from a series of different disciplinary perspectives, the traces Teotihuacan left across Mesoamerica, and especially on the Gulf Coast, where it molded a cultural style that lasted at least 300 years. The articles are grouped into several thematic sections: The Teotihuacan "World" (exchange, colonial settlements, and commercial ports on the Gulf Coast); The Obsidian "Route" (sources, manufacturing techniques, trade, and special analyses); "Elite" Art (texts and iconographic contexts); "Elites" and Cultural Traditions (the elites of the Gulf Coast vis-a-vis Teotihuacan cultural models); and The Inhabitants of the Teotihuacan "World" (ethnic groups, demography, and quality of life). In Spanish.
