I did some research a few years ago after visiting the town of Trincheras. If you Goggle Trincheras you will come up with lots of Archaeological stuff. There are trincheras all over Sonora. Lots of speculation as to what they actually were but little is known. All are similar in that they are walls or shelves that wrap around a hill. The town being named after the one located there. I recall Ariel shots and even GPS locations.

It is a must visit place but in the heat it would be a rough hike

They have left evidence of their passing in Arizona and New Mexico, USA, and Chihuahua, Mexico also.

Captivating links amigos, Tks for that great info, Now if we could get the head of Francisco Hernandez Mandujano in a Jar filled with tequila displayed at the guard shack in las conchas, enchanting.
