[Aztlan] Paintings of Oxtotitlan, Guerrero--Photos & research by Dr. David Grove

[sylvia at famsi.org]

Hello Listeros,

For over three decades, Oxtotitlan cave, in the state of Guerrero, Mexico, 
has been noted for its late Middle Preclassic period (c. 800-500 B.C.) 
paintings, many of which show strong similarities to the art of the Olmec of 
Veracruz and Tabasco. The photographs posted on this web site were taken by 
Dr. Grove in 1968 and 1969, and show the state of preservation of the 
paintings at that time.
