Ancient Settlement in Zacatecas.Occupied by Caxcan culture for less than 2 centuries (1350/1400-1531 AD), the settlement on the Cerro de Teul was their most important ceremonial center.
However the occupation of the hill top by some culture has been nearly continuous from 200BC to the Spanish Conquest.
Note: Sculpture of Decapitated MesoAmerican Ball Player found at Site Being Readied for Public Opening. See comment.
