Expedition to Mexico 2011
Discover what it’s like to be a team member on a Field Museum archaeological expedition—without ever leaving home!
Explore the hilltop houses and palaces of the Mitla Fortress—an ancient Zapotec outpost—with Field Museum archaeologists Dr. Gary Feinman and Linda Nicholas. Together, you’ll unearth clues to the rise and fall of the Zapotec civilization, which flourished in southern Mexico at roughly the same time as the Classic Maya.
