Article evaluation for "Zapotec civilization"

In History section it states "Rosario phase" but does not go into explaining what that is.

Sources are not recent, no source dated after 2002

Makes a claim that Zapotec civilization was militarily superior without providing any evidence of what made them superior to their counterparts.

In intro in the technology section reads as if it requires citing.

In the History section the "Zapotec" are referred to as an empire, but article does not state how it became an empire and what type of power structure leaders used in order to maintain and justify their power.

The section named Warfare and resistance reads as if it should be named "decline" and should go into details about how the Spanish conquest contributed to the fall of the Zapotec empire.
