Recorrido Arqueológico El Mesón

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank FAMSI for support of this project. Additional funding for the RAM survey was provided by Lambda Alpha National Anthropology Honor Society and the University of Kentucky. Permits for the fieldwork were granted by the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia. This project could not have been carried out if not for the efforts of Hugo Huerta Vicente (Universidad Veracruzana) who served as crew chief for the project; field crew members Irving Prieto, Mauro Prieto, Felipe Formperosa, Ernesto "Pachin" Gutierrez Ramos, Jairo Aguirre Rios, and Jonatan Prieto Garcia; Eraeeth Gonzalez Prieto, and Maria de Carmen Chegala Galloso who washed artifacts, and all of the people of Angel R. Cabada who allowed us to walk through their fields to collect the data. Thank you to Dr. Chris Pool (University of Kentucky) for his guidance in planning this project and for allowing me to store the recovered artifacts in the laboratory facility at Tres Zapotes. A special thank you goes to Ponciano Ortiz Ceballos (INAH) for traveling with me to meet local officials in Angel R. Cabada and for his guidance in securing permits from INAH. I would also like to thank the 2003 crew of the Proyecto Arqueológico Tres Zapotes for their friendship and support while I was in the field. Finally I would like to thank Dr. Richard A. Diehl (University of Alabama) for suggesting that I carry out this project.
