La agricultura dual indígena del postclásico
Keywords:
Agricultura, Centro de México, Época postclásicaAbstract
Durante la época prehispánica la agricultura fue una base fundamental del sustento de las poblaciones indígenas. El arreglo económico desarrollado por las poblaciones del Postclásico en el centro de México involucró una marcada división entre el tipo de agricultura que se realizó a nivel político y de los conjuntos domésticos del sector comunal. Dos distintas y complementarias estrategias de producción de alimentos de las comunidades del Postclásico fueron la agricultura de subsistencia y la agricultura institucional. En este trabajo exploro las metas y funciones de estas dos formas de agricultura debido a que proporcionan la base para el análisis de los sistemas agrícolas prehispánicos en el altiplano central mesoamericano.
