NUEVAS EVIDENCIAS DEL ESTILO ÑUIÑE EN EL SUROESTE POBLANO

Abstract

The Ñuiñe style are the characteristics by which John Paddock defined in the 60’s a group of archaeological sites located at the Norwest of Oaxaca, Mexico, and more specifically in the distrito of Huajuapan de León, Oaxaca. Thanks to the archaeological findings in the site of Cerro de las Minas at Huajuapan, the style could be defined with more details; also some research has been carried out in the area with the purpose of establishing the type of settlements, or the writing system developed in the region. Regarding this last topic, our aim is to present the registers realized recently in the Southwest of Puebla, related with the writing system in a region which is poorly known due to scarce anthropological and historical studies focused in the area in question. We present the hypotheses derived from these registers which allow us to redefine the limits and the extension of ñuiñe style. Furthermore, these new examples of writing let us corroborate the distributions of inscriptions by area, proposed previously by Rodríguez. Finally, based on the new evidence, we will contribute to a discussion on the language groups that used this writing system, given that in this region there was a commercial route that linked different areas of Mesoamerica and the last limit of the Mixteca Baja.
