Hi

Is there any other info on the excavations of the site? I was allowed to 
visit the site a few years ago. They had unearthed a main plaza and a 
pyramid and were awaiting negotiations with a local farmer to purchase more 
land surrounding the main plaza. One point that was made to me was that the 
only pyramid that seemed to be in the city was the unique shaped one 
dedicated to Ehecatl. It looked similar to the one at Huexotla. I was told 
this was unusual to have just the one pyramid, particularly one dedicated to 
Ehecatl in the city. Has this changed. have there been any other pyramids 
found. How big is the excavation site now?

Also, anyone know the latest on the Toltec site Huapacalco (I think that's 
it's name-  near Tulancingo). It has a couple of small pyramids at the base 
of a hill with some excavations being carried out on top of the hill. The 
workers weren't allowing anyone to see what they were doing. This was a few 
years ago.

If there's any more news on excavations, etc on the Non-Maya parts of Mexico 
please share them with us. I'm starved for info.  I'm always looking out for 
info but it's hard to come by. Unfortunately, even this list tends to 
concentrate more on the Maya. That's not a criticism just an observation. It 
would be good to see more on the non-Maya cultures. That's my two bobs 
worth.

Thanks, CC
