The study of the past is not merely an intellectual exercise: it is a form of resistance. Resistance against oblivion, against the destruction of heritage, against institutional indifference, against the hegemonic narratives that for centuries have made the ancient peoples of Mexico invisible-those who inhabited regions such as the Bajío. In this context, the present book, Archaeology of the Guanajuato Bajío, is not just a compilation of data and sites; it is an invitation to look again, to rediscover the landscape we inhabit with archaeological eyes, with memory.
Arqlgo. Luis Humberto Carlín Vargas

"The Cultural Project León Prehispánico, A.C., led by our author, has substantially contributed to building connections among communities, researchers, and citizens. From this platform, efforts have been made to raise awareness about the overwhelming growth of urbanization in our cities, which has resulted in the total or partial loss of countless archaeological sites, as has happened in León, Celaya, Comonfort, among many others."

Ing. Roberto Centeno

"My deepest gratitude to my friend Carlín, for without even planning it, he never journeyed alone in the archaeological endeavor; on behalf of my blood brothers Jorge and Víctor (R.I.P.), and of each and every student with whom I have shared knowledge; recognition, admiration, and respect for his tireless work in rescuing and safeguarding the archaeological heritage of Guanajuato... Thank you for everything, even life itself forever, so be it..."

Arq. Fabián Israel García Hernández

"Archaeologist Luis Humberto Carlín Vargas offers us here a work that combines academic rigor with social sensitivity. Archaeology of the Guanajuato Bajío. A holistic perspective does not limit itself to describing sites or dating chronologies; it invites us to look at our own landscape with new eyes, to understand that heritage is not a static remnant, but a living legacy that both transforms and is transformed by us. Because, as we well know, every denied past bursts into the present-a past that must be recorded and treasured, to strengthen the cultural archaeological project developed, which ranges from the creation of community museums to pedagogical cultural routes, leading us to recognize our legacy, so that we may care for it, value it, appreciate it, and protect it."Dr. Salvador Zermeño Méndez

This book fills a small but significant gap in the history of Mexico. Those who, like the author, understand the relevance of archaeology in the protection of the natural resources of the territory, the identity of its inhabitants, and the codes of well-being contained within the successes and mistakes of our history, will appreciate this essential guide to the traditions of the material culture of Guanajuato. It invites us to become better and more responsible stewards of its proper preservation.
