Munali chaka cha 1931 ndipo Mexico inali kukumana ndi nthawi zofunikira. Ziwawa za kusinthaku zinali zitatha ndipo dziko lidasangalala ndi kutchuka kwapadziko lonse lapansi kwanthawi yoyamba, chotulukapo chakukula kwa sayansi ndi zaluso.
Inali nthawi yanjanji, wailesi ya babu, ngakhale ophika mkate ndi azimayi olimba mtima omwe amafuna kuti azichitanso chimodzimodzi ndi amuna. Pa nthawiyo Don Alfonso Caso amakhala.
Chiyambire 1928, a Don Alfonso, loya komanso wofukula mabwinja, anali atabwera ku Oaxaca, wochokera ku Mexico City, kudzafunafuna mayankho pazovuta zake zasayansi. Ndinkafuna kudziwa kumene mbadwa za m'derali zimayambira. Ankafuna kudziwa kuti nyumba zazikulu zotani zomwe zingaganizidwe pamapiri otchedwa Monte Albán zinali chiyani komanso kuti zinali zotani.
Kuti achite izi, a Don Alfonso adapanga ntchito yofukula m'mabwinja yomwe makamaka inali yofukula ku Great Plaza komanso kwa akatswiri odziwika bwino omwe adazungulira; pofika 1931 inali nthawi yoti achite ntchito zomwe zidakonzedwa kalekale. Caso anasonkhanitsa anzake ndi ophunzira angapo, ndipo ndi ndalama zake ndi zopereka zina adayamba kufufuza ku Monte Albán. Ntchitoyi idayamba pa North Platform, yayikulu kwambiri komanso yovuta kwambiri mumzinda waukulu; choyamba masitepe apakati ndipo kuyambira pamenepo kufukula kumayankha zofunikira pazomwe zapezedwa ndi zomangamanga. Monga mwayi ukadakhala nawo, pa Januware 9 nyengo yoyamba ija, a Don Juan Valenzuela, wothandizira wa Caso, adayitanidwa ndi alimi kuti adzaone munda womwe khasu lidamira. Atalowa pachitsime pomwe antchito ena anali atatsuka kale, adazindikira kuti akukumana ndi zochititsa chidwi kwambiri. M'mawa wozizira kuzizira, anapeza chuma m'manda ku Monte Alban.
Mandawo adadziwika kuti ndianthu ofunikira, monga zopereka zokongola zidawonetsa; idapatsidwa dzina ndi nambala 7 chifukwa ikufanana nayo motsatira manda omwe afukulidwa mpaka pano. Manda 7 adadziwika kuti ndiwopatsa chidwi kwambiri ku Latin America munthawi yake.
Zomwe zidalipo zinali ndi mafupa angapo aanthu olemekezeka, kuphatikiza zovala zawo zolemera komanso zoperekazo, onse opitilira mazana awiri, omwe anali mikanda, ndolo, ndolo, mphete, malaya, tiara ndi ndodo, ambiri zopangidwa ndi zinthu zamtengo wapatali ndipo nthawi zambiri zimachokera kumadera akunja kwa Zigwa za Oaxaca. Zina mwazinthuzo zinali zowonekera golide, siliva, mkuwa, obsidi, miyala yamtengo wapatali, miyala yamiyala yamiyala, miyala yamiyala, mafupa ndi ziwiya zadothi, zonse zimagwiritsidwa ntchito mwaluso kwambiri komanso maluso ena osakhwima, monga ulusi wopota kapena ulusi wagolide wopota pazithunzithunzi. chodabwitsa, china chake sichinawonekepo ku Mesoamerica.
Kafukufuku adawonetsa kuti mandawo adagwiritsidwanso ntchito kangapo ndi Zapotecs a Monte Albán, koma chopereka cholemera kwambiri chimafanana ndi kuyikidwa kwa anthu atatu a Mixtec omwe adamwalira m'chigwa cha Oaxaca cha m'ma 1200 AD.
Pambuyo pa kupezeka kwa Manda a 7, Alfonso Caso adapeza kutchuka kwambiri ndipo izi zidabwera mwayi wakukonza bajeti yake ndikupitiliza kufufuza kwakukulu komwe adakonza, komanso mafunso angapo okhudzana ndi zomwe apezazo. . Unali wachuma kwambiri komanso wokongola kotero kuti anthu ena amaganiza kuti ndi zongoyerekeza.
Kupezeka kwa Great Plaza kunachitika m'zaka khumi ndi zisanu ndi zitatu zomwe ntchito yake idapitilira, mothandizidwa ndi gulu la akatswiri lopangidwa ndi akatswiri ofukula zakale, omanga mapulani ndi akatswiri azachikhalidwe. Ena mwa iwo anali Ignacio Bernal, Jorge Acosta, Juan Valenzuela, Daniel Rubín de la Borbolla, Eulalia Guzmán, Ignacio Marquina ndi Martín Bazán, komanso mkazi wa Caso, Akazi a María Lombardo, onsewa anali ochita masewera otchuka m'mbiri yakale ya Oaxaca.
Nyumba iliyonse idasanthulidwa ndi gulu la ogwira ntchito ochokera ku Xoxocotlán, Arrazola, Mexicapam, Atzompa, Ixtlahuaca, San Juan Chapultepec ndi matauni ena, olamulidwa ndi ena mwa mamembala asayansi. Zipangizo zomwe zidapezeka, monga miyala yomanga, ziwiya zadothi, mafupa, zipolopolo ndi zinthu za obsidian zidasiyanitsidwa mosamala kuti zizitengedwera ku labotale, chifukwa zimafufuza masiku omanga ndi mawonekedwe anyumbazo.
Ntchito yovutayi yosanja, kusanthula, ndi kumasulira zida zidatengera gulu la Caso zaka zambiri; buku la zoumbaumba za Monte Albán silinafalitsidwe mpaka 1967, komanso kuphunzira za Tomb 7 (El Tesoro de Monte Albán), zaka makumi atatu zitapezeka. Izi zikutiwonetsa kuti zamabwinja zam'mbuyomu ku Monte Albán zinali ndi ntchito yovutabe kwambiri yoti ipangidwe.
Khama la Caso mosakayikira linali loyenera. Kudzera mukutanthauzira kwawo tikudziwa lero kuti mzinda wa Monte Albán unayamba kumangidwa zaka 500 Khristu asanabadwe ndipo unali ndi nthawi zosachepera zisanu, zomwe akatswiri ofukula mabwinja masiku ano amapitilizabe kuzitcha nthawi za I, II, III, IV ndi V.
Pamodzi ndi kufufuza, ntchito ina yayikulu inali kumanganso nyumbazi kuwonetsa ukulu wawo wonse. Don Alfonso Caso ndi Don Jorge Acosta adapereka khama komanso anthu ambiri ogwira ntchito yomanganso makoma akachisi, nyumba zachifumu ndi manda, ndikuwapatsa mawonekedwe omwe asungidwa mpaka pano.
Kuti mumvetse bwino za mzindawu komanso zomangamanga, adachita zojambulajambula zingapo, kuchokera pamalingaliro am'malo momwe mapiri ndi madera amawerengedwa, mpaka zojambula za nyumba iliyonse ndi mbali zake. Momwemonso, anali osamala kuti ajambule nyumba zonse, ndiye kuti, nyumba zamakedzana zomwe zili mkati mwa nyumba zomwe tikuziwona pano.
Gulu la Caso lidapatsidwanso ntchito yopanga zomangamanga zochepa kuti athe kufikira malowa ndikupulumuka sabata ndi sabata pakati pazinthu zofukulidwa, zinthu zakale zokumbidwa pansi komanso manda. Ogwira ntchito adakhazikitsa ndikumanga mseu woyamba wolowera womwe ukugwiritsidwabe ntchito mpaka pano, komanso nyumba zazing'ono zomwe zinali ngati msasa munthawi yogwirira ntchito; Ayeneranso kukonza malo ogulitsira madzi ndikunyamula chakudya chawo chonse. Mosakayikira, inali nthawi yachikondi kwambiri pazofukulidwa zakale zaku Mexico.
