Manuel Gamio (1883–1960) was a Mexican anthropologist, archaeologist, sociologist, and a leader of the indigenismo movement. Although he rejected full sovereignty for indigenous communities in Mexico, he argued that their self-governing organizations, such as tribal governments, municipal organizations, and elected community leaders should be recognized and respected.[1][2] He is often considered as the father of modern anthropological studies in Mexico.[3] He devised a well-known system for classifying the hunter-gatherers of Central America.
