Talk:Mitla

Untitled
Added info about how the Spanish "recycled" the old Mixtec/Zapotec buildings to help further conversions (taken from what I read in a Lonely Planet Guide) and I added some of my own photos to better demonstrate some elements. Bobak 04:44, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Article split
Per other sites in Mesoamerica where there is a nearby modern settlement with the same or similar name to the archaeological site, it will be desirable to separate out into two articles - one for the arch. site and the other for the contemporary, living settlement. Hopefully will get around to doing this (as with a few others) soon, but if not anyone is of course welcome to do so (or alternatively, raise objection beforehand).--cjllw | TALK  13:41, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Distance from city of Oaxaca
Is it "located 44 km from the city of Oaxaca" like in the 2nd line of the article, or "It is 24 mi (38 km) southeast of Oaxaca city" 2 lines after that? And anyway why do we need to specify the distance twice in the same section? אביהו (talk) 14:19, 12 November 2021 (UTC)

Human habitation for 80,000 years
Clearly a mistake. אביהו (talk) 16:43, 12 November 2021 (UTC)

World Heritage Site
This Mitla archaeological site isn't part of the "Prehistoric caves of Yagul and Mitla in the Central Valley of Oaxaca" World Heritage Site. See the map at http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1352/multiple=1&unique_number=1693

As I am a newbie here, I don't feel comfortable removing the World Heritage banner in the infobox to the right, without breaking the format. But it should be removed. The focus of the World Heritage Site is on the prehistoric caves in the area, such as Guilá Naquitz. I can write a new page for that.
