Abstract
The study of changes in the social organization of
maize preparation provides an important opportunity to
examine the integration of households into larger systems
of social and economic relationships. Spatial analysis
of the distribution of manos and metates at Otumba demonstrates
a change in maize production from individual, household based
to a more specialized system. It is hypothesized that scarcity
of firewood for cooking was a causal factor for this change,
but more evidence is needed to test this idea.
