Listeros,
INAH has uncovered 3 intact tombs from the Comala phase of the Colima
culture. 18 human skeletons, metals and pottery dating to 100 BCE-700
CE were found. The pottery will be analyzed to determine the diet of
the Colima people. The remains were found in shaft tombs which are the
style of burial for the ancient peoples of West Mexico.
