This book summarizes what we know so far of the palatial complex of Xalla in Teotihuacan, located north of the Pyramid of the Sun. Not only are the archaeological findings, the areas of activity and architectural units, the functional sectors summarized, but the interdisciplinary perspective for your study: radiocarbon and archeomagnetic dating, pigment archeometry, mica, lapidary, the worked bone industry, fauna and flora. "The project "Teotihuacan. Elite and government. Excavations in Xalla and Teopancazco", directed by noted archeologist Linda R. Manzanilla, started in late 1997 in Teopancazco, a multiethnic neighborhood center of Teotihuacan, located south of the Citadel and concluded in 2005, with a brief foray into. In Xalla (sector N4E2 of the archaeological and topographic map of Reneþ Millon [1973]), the excavations were made from 2000 to 2005, and from 2012 to the present. The objectives of the project were to understand the way of life, activities, diet, composition and ethnicity of the Teotihuacan elites, both in a multi-ethnic neighborhood center (the intermediate elites for the case of Teopancazco) and in a possible multifunctional palace complex of the ruling elites (Xalla)."
