Zapotec

As we are looking at the city, keep in mind that we are only looking at the bare bones of the city. All of these walls, all of these surfaces, were completely covered in white stucco and then they were painted over in very bright colors. They would use: red was pervasive, yellow, maroon, blue, turquoise, all sorts of colors. Every single hue that you can imagine they would be using it here. -Fernando

With all the layers, and even going inside that little area there, that’s another layer, do you think there is still stuff here that is yet to be discovered? -Jen

Oh yes, this is only 1% of the site… they still need to do much, much more. -Fernando

They can still find much, much more with all these layers. -Jen

Theories are changing all the time. From when I first started coming here to now the theories are really different. There is a lot more acknowledgement of, you hear how Fernando talks, “The theory is this… the theory is this.” They are very careful not to make claims they don’t stand behind. -Deann

If you go to the outskirts and look around, any mountain type thing that you see, is a place that hasn’t been excavated yet. -Chef Moyo
