This book addresses the subject of neighborhoods in archaeology as analytical units between households and whole settlements. The contributions gathered here provide fieldwork data to document the existence of sociopolitically distinct neighborhoods within ancient Mesoamerican settlements, building upon recent advances in multi-scale archaeological studies of these communities. Chapters illustrate the cultural variation across Mesoamerica, including data and interpretations on several different cities with a thematic focus on regional contrasts. This topic is relatively new and complex, and this book is a strong contribution for three interwoven reasons. First, the long history of research on the "Teotihuacan barrios" is scrutinized and withstands the test of new evidence and comparison with other Mesoamerican cities. Second, Maya studies of dense settlement patterns are now mature enough to provide substantial case studies. Third, theoretical investigation of ancient urbanization all over the world is now more complex and open than it was before, giving relevance to Mesoamerican perspectives on ancient and modern societies in time and space. This volume will be of interest not only to scholars and student specialists of the Mesoamerican past but also to social scientists and urbanists looking to contrast ancient cultures worldwide. 606 $aUrban Indians$zMexico 606 $aUrban Indians$zCentral America 606 $aNeighborhoods$zMexico$xHistory 606 $aNeighborhoods$zCentral America$xHistory 606 $aSocial archaeology$zMexico 606 $aSocial archaeology$zCentral America 607 $aTeotihuaca?n Site (San Juan Teotihuaca?n, Mexico) 607 $aMexico$xAntiquities 607 $aCentral America$xAntiquities 615 0$aUrban Indians 615 0$aUrban Indians 615 0$aNeighborhoods$xHistory. 615 0$aNeighborhoods$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aSocial archaeology 676 $a972/.01 701 $aArnauld$b Marie-Charlotte$0885143 701 $aManzanilla$b Linda$01174827 701 $aSmith$b Michael Ernest$f1953-$01813036 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954753603321 996 $aThe neighborhood as a social and spatial unit in Mesoamerican cities$94472284 997 $aUNINA
