The San Diego Archaeological Center presents a lecture with bioarchaeologist José “Pepe” Aguilar. Twelve burials, comprising 14 individuals, were excavated from an Early Formative Period (1950–1525 BC) site called La Consentida in Oaxaca, Mexico in 2009 and 2012. Collectively, they represent the earliest formal cemetery in the Mesoamerican west coast.
