  • Chiquihuitillos is an archeological site located in the city and municipality of Mina in the Nuevo León State, México. In general throughout northeastern Mexico archaeological wealth is priceless. The site has impressive petroglyphs, is considered an important area in the regional context. Where there is nothing, in the heart of the desert, within the limits of Mina, Villa Aldama and Bustamante, is one of the sites with the highest concentration of cave paintings in Mexico. This is Chiquihuitillos, a set of several hills containing a series of rocky shelters where ancient tribes painted impressive drawings in rock and imprinted elements of their cosmos view. First, it is an important concentration of cave paintings and secondly the manifestations show similarities with a number of other contiguous sites in the region, so we can speak of a tradition The area was formerly inhabited by native Alzapas, that spoke the Coahuilteco language. It is not certain how many people lived there, since it does not seem to be a residential place, rather seems to be a place for visitors and not residential, currently there is no water in the vicinity. While it is true that these ancient tribes left no traces of pyramids, as it is the case of other mesoamerican cultures, however this heritage, provide new evidence for comprehension of the past. Specialists coincide in the northeastern area has a different archaeological heritage, but just as important as the rest of the country. There is an erroneous perception that in the north there is nothing, and therefore has dismissed archaeological study of the cultural processes. While the Chiquihuitillos cave painting are not pyramid structures, the importance and the monumentality of these painting manifestations of on ravines and cliffs is truly impressive. (en)
  • Chiquihuitillos es una zona arqueológica, ubicado en el municipio de Mina, Estado de Nuevo León, México. En general todo el noreste de México se alberga una riqueza arqueológica incalculable. La zona tiene impresionantes petroglifos, es considerada una zona importante en el contexto regional. En el medio del desierto, entre los municipios de Mina, Villaldama y Bustamante, se localiza una importante concentración de pinturas rupestres. Es un conjunto de lomas donde las tribus antiguas plasmaron en rocas su cosmovisión.​ “En primer lugar es una concentración importante de pinturas rupestres y en segundo lugar las manifestaciones muestran semejanzas con una serie de otros sitios que se hallan en una región contigua, por lo que se puede hablar de toda una tradición”​ Esta zona fue habitada por grupos nativos; como los Alazapas, quienes hablaban Idioma coahuilteco. No se conoce la cantidad de miembros de los grupos que habitaban la zona, no hay restos de lugares habitacionales tampoco agua suficiente para la agricultura de temporal.​ Estos grupos antiguos no construyeron pirámides, como en otras culturas mesoamericanas, sin embargo este patrimonio ofrece nueva información para la compresión del pasado.​ Este patrimonio arqueológico es diferente, pero tan importante como otras muestras mesoamericanas. Persiste la percepción de que en los desiertos septentrionales no hay nada, y no ha habido muchas investigaciones arqueológicas.​ Las pinturas rupestres de Chiquihuitillos sin ser estructuras piramidales, son impresionantes manifestaciones antiguas sobre cañadas y riscos.​ (es)
