	Reports Submitted to FAMSI - Stephen L. Whittington
		The pattern at Iximché also differs from that reported for contemporaneous Mixco Viejo, also in the highlands, where some teeth had been filed (Gervais-Cloris, 1985-1986).
		Cranial deformation is present in at least 42 individuals, although in three cases the modification is so slight that it may have been an unintentional side effect of some other action, such as always lying on one side when sleeping.
		Evidence of iron deficiency anemia, caused by either malnutrition or the anemia of infection, is present as the pitting of porotic hyperostosis on the outer surface of at least one cranial bone from seven individuals, six adults, and one subadult.

		Bajo este nombre se acaba de publicar por la editorial Cholsamaj, el libro sobre Mixco Viejo de Guillermo Paz Cárcamo.
		El autor no es historiador y quizá por eso se sale de aquel esquema tradicional e incluso hay párrafos escritos con pasión que no le resta mérito a la obra, si no le da un sello distintivo.
		El libro está ilustrado con hermosas imágenes del centro ceremonial conocido como Mixco Viejo, que más bien debería llamarse Jilotepeque Viejo; porque como argumenta el autor, ese lugar no era poqomam, sino kaqchikel.

	Informe Presentado a FAMSI - Stephen L. Whittington
		A diferencia de las tierras bajas mayas del período Clásico, los esqueletos de Iximché nunca presentan dientes modificados artificialmente con bordes limados o incrustaciones de jade, pirita, obsidiana o coral.
		El patrón de Iximché también difiere del que se ha informado con respecto al contemporáneo Mixco Viejo, también en las tierras altas, donde algunos dientes sí habían sido limados (Gervais-Cloris, 1985-1986).
		La deformación craneana está presente en al menos 42 individuos, aunque en tres de estos casos la modificación es tan ligera que bien puede haber sido un efecto secundario no buscado de alguna otra acción, como por ejemplo ponerse siempre del mismo lado para dormir.
