Listeros, 

I'm giving a brief presentation on the aDNA extraction techniques (and results thereof) outlined in 2008 De La Cruz et al Sex Identification of Children Sacrificed to the Ancient Aztec Rain Gods in Tlatelolco , but I wanted to elaborate on the taphonomy of the site, as well as Guilliem's site interpretations presented in his 1999 book Ofrendas a Ehécatl‐ Quetzalcoatl en México‐ Tlatelolco. Furthermore, I'm interested in other related aDNA studies conducted at the site (if any), or other interpretations of this particular cache. Unfortunately, I'm currently in a location where my research resources are a little limited, which basically leaves me to material accessable online. Any online articles you could suggest would be very helpful, as would any links to images/site plans/etc. 

Thanks much, 

Kyra Glore
