Ua hoʻokumu ʻia nā mea ʻōlelo o ka ʻōlelo Huasteca, mai ka wā mua, kahi kuʻuna moʻomeheu koʻikoʻi i hoʻokaʻawale iā lākou mai nā lāhui ʻē aʻe i noho ma mua o ka Hispanic Mexico.
Koho lākou i ko lākou wahi noho i ka ʻĀkau o ka ʻāina ākea i kapa ʻia ʻo Gulf Coast. He demarcable maikaʻi loa kēia inā mākou e lawe i nā palena, i ka hema, i ka muliwai Cazones —Veracruz— a, i ka ʻākau, ʻo ka muliwai ʻo Soto la Marina —Tamaulipas—; Aia ma ka hikina ka palena o ke awāwa ʻo Mexico a ma ke komohana ua komo ia i nā ʻāpana nui o nā mokuʻāina ʻo San Luis Potosí, Querétaro a me Hidalgo.
Inā mākou e mākaʻikaʻi i kēlā kihi o Mexico e ʻike mākou i ʻehā mau wahi kaiaola nui: ke kahakai, ke kahakai kahakai, nā kula a me nā kuahiwi, kēlā me kēia me kona ʻano ponoʻī o ka lau nahele a me ke aniau. I loko nō o kēia ʻokoʻa ʻāina, mahalo mākou i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa kūpono ʻana o nā Huastecos i kēlā me kēia wahi, e loaʻa ana mai ka nohona kūlohelohe nā kumuwaiwai āpau no kā lākou ola. I nā ʻāpana ʻehā ua haʻalele lākou i nā hōʻike, ʻike nui ʻia e nā puʻu kūlohelohe nui nona ka inoa kaulana i ka ʻāina ʻo "cues".
Wahi a nā loea loea, ua hoʻokumu ʻia ke kumu linguistic Protomaya i kapa ʻia he mau makahiki i hala aku nei, kahi e loaʻa ai nā ʻōlelo Mayan a me Huastec āpau. Ua hoʻonāukiuki kēia kumuhana i nā kūkākūkā a me nā hoʻokokoke ʻana he nui. Manaʻo kekahi ʻo ka poʻe i noho mua i ko lākou wahi i kēia manawa ʻo Huastecos, a ukali ʻia e ka Mei, a ua luku ʻia ke alahaka ma waena o ʻelua mau kenekulia ma hope e nā linguistic a me nā moʻomeheu moʻomeheu o nā Nahuas a, ka hapanui , o ka Totilims, ka mea i noho i ke kai o Veracruz.
E like me nā poʻe Mesoamerican ʻē aʻe, ua hoʻomohala ka Huastecs i kā lākou moʻomeheu i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka hoʻokele waiwai i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka mahiʻai ikaika e pili ana i ka kulina a me nā mea kanu ʻē aʻe, e like me ka pī a me ka palaʻai. Aia ia ma ka Sierra de Tamaulipas kahi i loaʻa ai i ka archaeologist ʻo Richard Mac Neish i kekahi mau ana o nā hōʻike o ka ulu ʻana i loko o ka hānai a me ka mahi ʻana i ka palaoa, e hōʻike ana aia paha ia ma ka ʻāina ʻo Huasteca kahi i loaʻa ai i nā Indians kahiko ka palaoa no ka manawa mua. e like me kā mākou e ʻike nei i kēia lā.
Mai nā noiʻi archaeological ʻike mākou ʻo nā mahiʻai mua, ʻo ka ʻohana paha o Otomí, i noho ma kapa o ka muliwai ʻo Pánuco me kahi moʻomeheu moʻomeheu e hoʻi ana ma kahi o 2500 BC. Ke hoʻomaka nei paha, mai ka makahiki 1500 BC, ua hōʻea nā Huastecos, nā mea i kūkulu i nā lumi maʻalahi o ka palolo a me ka bajereque. Ua hana lākou i nā ipu lepo he nui i hana ʻia i loko o ka pālolo. ʻo ka poʻe i kūlike i kēia wā mua i loaʻa ka poʻo o ka wā Pavón. Hoʻonohonoho kēia hui i nā ipu wai ʻulaʻula a keʻokeʻo paha i hoʻonani ʻia a me nā ʻano e kūlike i nā ipu me nā kino spherical a i ʻole i nā ipuhao me nā kino i ke ʻano o nā mōlina a i ʻole nā ʻāpana e hoʻomanaʻo koke i ke ʻano o nā ipu.
Ma waho aʻe o kēia mau ipuhao e hana ana i ka pākaukau i kapa ʻia ʻo "holomua metala", loaʻa iā mākou nā pākaukau papa keʻokeʻo "holomua keʻokeʻo", kahi o nā kinona koʻikoʻi he papa pālahalaha a nona ka hoʻonaninani o kahi punch e pili ana i nā pōʻai i hana ʻia, hoʻohana ana i ka ʻohe.
I loko o ka hana kuʻuna potative Formative, ua hana nā mea hana lima Huastec i nā kiʻiona he nui o ka moʻomeheu Mesoamerican nui akā ʻike ʻia e ko lākou mau maka elliptical cleft unrealistically, nā poʻo me nā lae pālahalaha e hōʻike ana i ka deformation cranial i hana ʻia. mai ka wā mua a, i ka hapanui o nā hihia, nā lima a me nā wāwae i liʻiliʻi a i ʻole hinted paha i ka holoʻokoʻa.
No Román Piña Chán, ua hoʻomaka pololei ke kuʻuna Huasteca maoli ma kahi o 200 BC. I kēlā manawa ua kamaʻilio ka poʻe ʻōlelo o kēia ʻōlelo i kekahi ʻāpana o Tamaulipas, San Luis Potosí, Querétaro a me Veracruz, a ʻoiai ʻaʻole lākou i hoʻokumu i kekahi hui politika nui aʻe, ua hāʻawi ʻia kā lākou ʻōlelo a me nā kuʻuna moʻomeheu iā lākou i ka manaʻo nui i alo ai lākou. ʻo ka mua nā Nahuas a laila ka Paniolo a mai kahi mai i loaʻa ai ka poʻe lāhui i kū i kēia lā.
Hōʻike nā archaeologists ua hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ka moʻomeheu mua-Hispanic Huasteca i ʻeono mau manawa a i ʻole nā ʻāpana i hiki ke ʻike ʻia ma o nā ʻano ʻē i loaʻa i nā keramika i hoʻohana ʻia e kēlā poʻe. ʻO nā pae moʻomeheu e kūlike me kēia evolution: ʻo ka Preclassic Luna mai ka makahiki 0 a i ka 300 AD, ka Classic, mai ka makahiki 300 a hiki i ka 900 AD, a me ka Postclassic, mai 900 a 1521. E like me ka maopopo o ka hoʻoholo ʻana o kēia evolution pālolo i ka ʻĀpana o Pánuco, ua kapa ʻia kēia mau pae e ka inoa o ka muliwai.
I ka wā Formative a i hala paha o ka wā Preclassic (100 a 300 AD) ʻo ia ka manawa i hoʻomaka ai ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka moʻomeheu Huasteca, e pili ana i nā kuʻuna ceramic mua loa, a ʻo ia ka manawa e wehewehe ai nā potera i ka ipu lepo "Black Prisco", i hoʻopili pū ʻia me nā pā o hui pū me ka silhouette, nā kīʻaha maʻalahi me nā lua, a me nā pā tripod a me nā moku i kāhiko ʻia me ke ʻano pena kiʻi fresco. Loaʻa iā mākou nā keramika "Pánuco gris", nona nā kinona e kūlike i nā ipu me nā moldboard a me nā ipu i hoʻonani ʻia me ka hana paʻi lole. aʻe i kēia mau mea kekahi kaulana puna puna keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo nona ka hiʻohiʻona koʻikoʻi i hana ʻia i nā lima lōʻihi a i ʻole nā potholders.
