GRAVE TIRADO, Luis Alfonso. Los Frijoles: a lost province in the lower basin of the Quelite River, Sinaloa. Cuicuilco. Rev. cienc. antropol. [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.82, pp.125-148. Epub 15-Ago-2022. ISSN 2448-8488.
The objective of this article is to demonstrate that the current dominant interpretation, regarding the sociopolitical organization of Sinaloa that sustains the existence of enormous territories dominated by two capitals: Chametla, in the south and Culiacán in the center, is incorrect. By way of a new analysis of the documents that narrate the first incursion of the Spanish army to the northwestern coast of the Mexican Pacific region, combined with the results of the latest archaeological investigations, it has been established that, in reality, Sinaloa was divided into relatively small political-territorial units, generally circumscribed to river basins. This research delves deeper into a region practically ignored until now by both history and archeology: the Quelite river basin.
