Classic Maya Provincial Politics

Xunantunich and Its Hinterlands

Herausgeber: Lecount, Lisa J; Yaeger, Jason

Beschreibung

Charts the rise and fall of the Classic Maya center of Xunantunich, paying special attention to its changing relationships with the communities that comprised its hinterlands. Until now archaeologists have lacked integrated regional data and a fine-grained chronology in which to document short-term shifts in site occupations, subsistence strategies, and other important practices of the daily life of the Maya.
