San Felipe Aztatán: an Aztatlan Political and Ceremonial Center in the Lower Basin of the Rio Acaponeta, Nayarit, 2024
Los trabajos de sondeo arqueológico efectuados en el 2002 en el sitio prehispánico de San Felipe Aztatán, ubicado en la cuenca baja del río Acaponeta (Nayarit), revelaron la presencia de profundos depósitos culturales y de una sucesión ininterrumpida de niveles sucesivos de ocupación, desde el Formativo Terminal (complejo cultural Chinesco 100 a.C.-250 d.C.) hasta el Postclásico Medio (fase cultural Ixcuintla, 1100-1350 d.C.). Estos sondeos permitieron corroborar que el apogeo constructivo del sitio tuvo lugar durante el periodo Postclásico, vinculado con el desarrollo y expansión del complejo cultural Aztatlán (850/900-1350 d.C.), cuya zona nuclear de desarrollo se encontraba en las tierras bajas noroccidentales de Nayarit y del sur de Sinaloa.

Incantatio. Issue 2 - Full Book Review
Incantatio. An International Journal on Charms, Charmers and Charming, 2012
An extremely interesting contribution and a welcome addition to the study of a whole range of practices, such as charms, apocryphal texts, healing practices, prayers and so on, James Alexander Kapaló's book Text, Context and Performance. Gagauz Folk Religion in Discourse and Practice is concerned with that portion of the Gagauz population which inhabits the southern region of the Republic of Moldova. Past scholarship has focused on the ethnic origins of this population and the tension between its Christian faith and Turkish linguistic identity. As the result of its author's extensive fi eldwork in the Republic of Moldova from 2005 to 2007, this study approaches the problem of this central dichotomy in Gagauz identity through the prism of daily religious practices. Kapaló's research, historical in its scope, spanning from the end of the nineteenth century to the beginning of the twenty fi rst, is also ethnographic in its approach. It debates on and probes into the 'folk' or 'popular' religion as a locus of linguistic struggle between and betwixt academic, national, political, religious, or, according to the author, 'elite' discourses (macro-level) and everyday struggle for access to the divine realm through interventionist practices and in competitive fashion with clergy (micro-level) practices. Key-points of this approach include: a) 'texts' connected, on the one hand, with the scholarly, ecclesiastic and political discourses and their contribution to the construction of Gagauz national identity and popular religious consciousness and, on the other, with the liturgical/canonical and lay/apocryphal tradition of Gagauz, b) the context of above mentioned texts within their social, historical and political frame and c) the role of the performance of these texts in creating, institutionalising and transmitting lay religious practices. Kapaló's book meets all the criteria of a thoughtfully organised, well-structured research both from an academic and methodological point of view. The fi rst part of the book includes Note on Transliteration, Names and Toponyms, a very useful Glossary of Frequently Used Terms and Abbreviations in Gagauz and Russian, followed by lists of Illustrations and Maps. An extensive and analytical introductory chapter also provides all the necessary information concerning the geographical area, its historical and political contexts and the aims and key points of the relevant research. Chapter one on Folk Religion in Discourse and Practise deals with the theoretical dimension of the performative nature of the 'folk religious fi eld'.
