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.

Erik Boot has the story here (in Spanish);
