lilavasa [31]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Las características del periodo preclásico en Mesoamérica, son las siguientes.

Estamos hablando de uno de los periodos destacados en esta importante etapa de la historia Mesoamericana, en la región central de lo que ahora es el territorio de la República Mexicana.

El periodo preclásico comenzó aproximadamente en el 2500 AC y furo hasta el 200AC. Los historiadores consideran que inició cuando los habitantes de esta región comenzaron a trabajar la cerámica para elaborar utensilios, y culminó con la caída de una de las ciudades Mesoamericanas más importantes de esta época: Cuicuilco, que hoy en día está ubicada al sur de la Ciudad de México. El sitio arqueológico está muy bien conservado y se puede visitar.

En el preclásico inferior, la ciudad de Mogote en Oaxaca, y algunos asentamientos en la planicie de Oaxaca, Puebla y el estado de Guerrero.

En el preclásico medio, existieron desarrollos importantes en Tehuacán, Puebla, Veracruz y Tabasco, incluyendo la Venta, con sus gigantescas cabezas Olmecas. Tres Zapotes y San Lorenzo, también llegaron centros importantes de agricultura y comercio.

Más adelante, en el preclásico superior, se desarrolla la imponente ciudad de Monte Albán en Oaxaca y se comienza la planeación de lo que sería uno de los centros más modernos de su época: la impresionante Teotihuacán, en la parte central del territorio.

La economía del preclásico era netamente agrícola, y se complementaba con la caza y la pesca.  

En el aspecto social, existían marcadas clases, desde el Emperador que estaba hasta arriba de la pirámide en la escala social, pasando por sacerdotes, los guerreros, los mercaderes o comerciantes y los campesinos. Cabe resaltar que la vida en familia era muy importante como parte de la estructura social.
