Las grandes culturas de Mesoamérica es el pretexto perfecto para asomarse a la heterogénea historia cultural de los pueblos mesoamericanos. El vasto desarrollo cultural de la zona, que abarcaba gran parte de México y el norte de Centroamérica, es relatado por Demetrio Sodi, experto destacado en indigenismo interamericano. Así, el autor nos muestra que olmecas, teotihuacanos, toltecas, mayas, aztecas, zapotecas, mixtecas, huastecos, totonacos y purépechas compartieron un territorio tan disímil como lo son las culturas que ellos representan.
