The experience of an archaeologist traveling through the Mixteca Alta Global Geopark (Oaxaca, Mexico) reveals the sense of the history that is present in the domesticated scenery of this outstanding geopark. The authors literally had the feeling of having been transported to another time, and the archaeologist had a full perception of the events that gave a profound sense of the social history of the Mixteca. The geology and the geography of the region are the scene of a history of human adaptation in order to produce and exploit a great number of natural and cultural resources. In such a case, the MAGG can be considered as a sort of ecomuseum where history makes sense and the archaeological past is revived through the sensations we feel as we witness a new adaptation process to the apparent harsh environment of the 21st Century.
