Santa Cecilia Acatitlan and San Bartolo Tenayuca archaeologic micro-sites

Submitted by gwolf on Tue, 08/25/2009 - 13:09

On August 22, 2009, Pooka and Moni offered a visit to the archaeological mini-sites in Tlalnepantla, the municipality they live in in Estado de México, Northern part of Mexico City. More people were originally invited, but in the end, only Caro, Vicm3 and myself were able to attend.

We had a very nice day, visiting Santa Cecilia Acatitlan and San Bartolo Tenayuca, two very similar sites with Chichimeca constructions and colonial churches.

Tlalnepantla is a very strange municipality nowadays. Pooka explained us of its vast regional influence, until it gave way to Texcoco —and later Mexico-Tenochtitlan— as the dominant power. Tlalnepantla lost notoriety — So much that its current (and last) prehispanic name means the place in between — between two more important places.

Anyway, being us three complete geeks (plus Moni, who blends quite well between us) with lots of social, politic coincidences, we also had a great talk — Víctor summarized it: Wikipedia, FaceBook and their clones, license and licenceable material understanding, the hopefully upcoming Central-American mini-DebConf, different CMSs. And many things that escape any relationship.

Pooka and Moni treated us with the traditionally great Mexican vegetarian food — Nopales, quelites, setas, elotes. Yum! After lunch, we had a bottle of Debian wine and torta del Casar de Cáceres.

Very nice and worthy visit. And the photos, of course, are here.

Qué relación tiene _ESTE_

Qué relación tiene _ESTE_ post con el software libre y Centro América?

Hay infinidad de redes sociales en las que puedes escribir este tipo de contenido que no tiene relación con el software libre y Centro América.

Es un planeta. ¿No te gusta?

Lo siento, Víctor — En este caso, la relación es clara: Fue una reunión social para visitar un sitio arqueológico mesoamericano con compañeros de grupos de Software Libre — Y si no reconoces a la ciudad de México como Centroamérica/Mesoamérica, te bastará saber que entre los asistentes estaba Carolina, que nadie dirá que no es centroamericana. Pan-centroamericana, de hecho :-}

¿?

Lo primero que digo es que yo sí estaba, pero aunque no hubiera estado ¿de qué estamos hablando? ¿de fronteras? Pensé que entrae la gente del movimiento de Software Libre no se hablaba de semejantes barreras ¡si ya nos las saltamos todas! Y lo mismo aplica para los temas ¿hay acaso temas que no se relacionen con la cultura libre? Seguramente habrá algunos, pero en este caso, vino Debian, Wikipedia, sitios arqueológicos, discusiones interesantes sobre tecnología... ¿será que se sigue creyendo que el Software Libre es sólo código abierto?

(Gunnar, gracias por usar el reCapctcha)
