[Aztlan] Pre-Columbian Workshops

What kind of workshops? Ceramic, figurine, obsidian, ground stone? There 
is a very large literature on this subject, and your question is really 
too general to answer on the list.

I'd recommend that you get a good deal more specific (material, area, time 
span) and betake yourself to Anthropological Literature, which I'm sure is 
available through your university library & which does indexing of book 
chapters and journal articles.

A somewhat out of date bibliography mostly about Teotihuacan can be found 
in my thesis, which is called "Teotihuacan Cooking Pots" & which is 
available through UMI. Most of the authors who were working in 95 are 
still active, and you can pick up the trace of younger scholars through 
citations in their more recent articles.

> I am doing research on Pre-Columbian workshops.  I am aware that there was a workshop found at Teotinuaccan as well as San Lorenzo from the Olmec Civilization, however I am having difficulty finding a lot of information on those or any other Pre-Columbian workshop.  Does anyone know anything about these workshops?
