Anotace:	This volume, the fourteenth in the monograph series on the prehistory and human ecology of the Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico, focuses on Cerro Tilcajete, a secondary administrative center below Monte AlbÃ¡n, the capital of the prehispanic Zapotec state.After defeating the Tilcajete region, Monte AlbÃ¡n created a new administrative center for the OcotlÃ¡n region: Cerro Tilcajete. Elson excavated this Period II mountaintop administrative center for three seasons and showed that, in contrast to San JosÃ© Mogote, Cerro Tilcajete was a newly created regional center rather than a reoccupation of an earlier site. Elson's excavations aimed to document the nature of Cerro Tilcajete's ties to Monte AlbÃ¡n, especially the links between the elite families at the capital and those at Cerro Tilcajete. By Period II, the site of Monte AlbÃ¡n had become the capital of a fully developed state and had begun to solidify its core region, investing in the administration of the area within 1-2 days travel of the capital. Elson deftly moves us away from the top-down, capital-centric focus, and in so doing, gives us new insights into secondary administrative centers in a pristine state.
