Abstract

The Traditional Housing of the Mixteca Poblana. The Last Houses with “Techo de oreja” in San Jerónimo Xayacatlán, Puebla is a book that speaks to us, through a refined ethnohistorical methodology, about the last house with  “techo de oreja” (roofs with vents) in a small Mixtec community, San Jerónimo Xayacatlán. It is a work composed of eight sections in which the authors approach the subject through data obtained from archaeological, documentary, linguistic, and ethnographic materials that show the changes and continuity of vernacular architecture of both the Mixtec and Ngiwa peoples in southern Puebla, as well as its value as part of the cultural heritage and cultural landscape of these communities.
