多年来，墨西哥杜兰戈州和萨卡特卡斯州西部的一些考古遗址一直被指定为查尔奇胡特文化类型(Hrdlička 1903；Gamio 1910；Noguera 1930；Mason 1937；Brand 1939)。该文化的名字来自于位于萨卡特卡斯西北部的一个早期研究和部分测试的同名遗址。梅森指出，迦勒基胡特人的文化一直向南延伸到伟大的拉奎马达遗址，或也被称为奇科莫斯托克的地方，位于萨卡特卡斯西南约35英里处(梅森1937)。它流行于杜兰戈市附近的杜兰戈南部，梅森和布兰德认为，在北部150英里的杜兰戈Zape，它已经达到了北部的极限。在扎普，它已经变得边缘和衰弱，失去了它的许多优良品质。随着更多信息的获得，这种文化可能会扩展到哈利斯科北部的一组遗址。
For many years a Chalchihuites type of culture has been designated for a number of archaeological sites in the western parts of the states of Durango and Zacatecas, Mexico (Hrdlička 1903; Gamio 1910; Noguera 1930; Mason 1937; Brand 1939). The culture takes its name from the early-studied and partiallytested site of the same name located in northwestern Zacatecas. Chalchihuites culture has been noted by Mason to extend as far south as the great site of La Quemada, or Chicomostoc as it is also called, some 35 miles southwest of Zacatecas, Zacatecas (Mason 1937). It is prevalent in southern Durango in the vicinity of the city of Durango, and Mason and Brand believe that at Zape, Durango, 150 miles to the north, it had reached its northern limit. At Zape it had become peripheral and attenuated, having lost much of its fine quality. As more information is obtained, it is possible that the culture may be extended to a group of sites in northern Jalisco.
