    Abstract
    During the two millennia designated the Formative period (1500 BC – AD 100) and the Classic period (AD 100–650), societies of the central Mexican highlands undertook many of the key transformations typically associated with premodern social complexity. These include the transition to agricultural and sedentary lifeways; the creation of urban centers with monumental architecture; the diversification of economic production, intensification of exchange networks, differentiation of status, and heightened social inequality; and the formalization of depictions of gods, symbols, and sacred spaces of a religious system that was widely shared and long lasting. This summary of the period focuses on such transitions, especially during the interval of ca. 600 BC – AD 250, covering the periods designated in central Mexico as the end of the Middle Formative, the Late Formative, the Terminal Formative, and the beginning of the Early Classic.
     
    Durante los dos milenios denominados periodos Formativo (1500 a.C.-100 d.C.) y Clásico (100-650 d.C.), las sociedades del Altiplano Central mexicano realizaron muchos de los cambios claves típicamente asociados con la complejidad social pre-moderna. Estos incluyen la transición a una vida agrícola y sedentaria, la creación de centros urbanos con arquitectura monumental, diversificación de la producción, intensificación de redes de intercambio, diferenciación de estatus y desigualdad social; así como la apariencia de dioses, símbolos y espacios sagrados de un sistema religioso compartido y de larga duración. Este resumen se enfoca en tales transiciones, sobre todo durante el intervalo aproximado comprendido entre el 600 a.C. y 250 d.C., que cubre los períodos designados como finales del Formativo Medio, Formativo Tardío, Formativo Terminal y el inicio del Clásico Temprano.
