PATRICIA FOURNIER G.

I am a University of Arizona alumna, an Arizona State Museum visiting scholar, and a Smithsonian Institution research associate (National Museum of Natural History). Since 1989 I am a full-time professor in the archaeology graduate program at the National School of Anthropology and History in Mexico City, where I teach historical archaeology, ethnoarchaeology, modern material culture studies, and symbolic anthropology (among other topics). I direct a long-term research program in the Tula region (central Mesoamerica), and have been a principal in the study of the Colonial Royal Road (Camino Real de Tierra Adentro). My publications include books, monographs, and articles on the pre-Columbian archaeology, history, and ethnohistory of the Mezquital Valley, Mexico-Tenochtitlan, as well as on the archaeology and history of the borderlands.
