Listeros,

17 pre-Hispanic skeletons were recently discovered near Cholula. They  
could belong to the Olmeca-Xicalanca culture from the years 900-1150  
CE. This group had its capital at Cacaxtla. The skeletons were buried  
in a fetal position, oriented to the northeast along with ceramics, a  
jadeite bead and an obsidian knife. Sex and age have yet to be  
determined. Eventually, this group was defeated by Toltec dispersed  
warriors.
