One of the most important activities in Teotihuacan was the lapidary industry. Among the raw material more worked on, slate was used to make personal adornments, ritual and funerary gifts. Its social and symbolic relevance indicates its impact on state control over productive zones, commercial routes and the craftwork production system so important to the consolidation and maintenance of the teotihuacan State.Downloads
