  • Victims of the Victims

    Open AccessMichael W Spence, Christine D White et al.ARTICLEAncient Mesoamerica2004Citada por: 16Referencias: 43

    The large series of sacrificial victims excavated from the Feathered Serpent Pyramid (ca.a.d.200) includes 72 males identified as soldiers. Although most of these wore pendants of imitation human maxillae, four soldiers each had between seven and eleven real human maxillae. Dental dimensions indicate that most, and perhaps all, of these trophies were from males. Dental attrition levels suggest a broader and flatter age profile for the pendants th…

  • Geographic Identities of the Sacrificial Victims from the Feathered Serpent Pyramid, Teotihuacan

    Open AccessChristine D White, Michael W Spence et al.ARTICLELatin American Antiquity2002Citada por: 79Referencias: 42

    This study addresses the political and military structure of early Teotihuacan through the analysis of oxygen-isotope ratios in skeletal phosphate from 41 victims of a sacrifice associated with the Feathered Serpent Pyramid. Oxygen-isotope ratios are markers of geographic identity. A comparison of bone and enamel values, which provides a contrast between environments experienced during growth and those of adulthood, illustrates that at least four…

  • Revisiting the Teotihuacan Connection at Altun Ha

    Open AccessChristine D White, Fred J Longstaffe et al.ARTICLEAncient Mesoamerica2001Citada por: 17

    An analysis of oxygen-isotope ratios in skeletal phosphate was used to assess the possibility that the Early Classic period (a.d. 280–550) Maya elite male in Tomb F/8-1 from the eastern Belizean site of Altun Ha had originally come from Teotihuacan, Mexico. When compared with four other individuals used as controls for spatial and temporal variability in δ18Op values at Altun Ha, this individual falls at the high end of the expected range of loca…

  • Social Complexity and Food Systems at Altun Ha, Belize

    Open AccessChristine D White, David M Pendergast et al.ARTICLELatin American Antiquity2001Citada por: 43Referencias: 62

    This study reports stable carbon-isotope ratios for both bone collagen and apatite, and nitrogen-isotope ratios for bone collagen for 72 Maya skeletons from 9 zones representing contrasting status groups at Altun Ha, Belize. The sample spans the Preclassic to Postclassic periods, approximately 800 B. C. to after A. D. 950. Although Altun Ha has a maize-based (C-4) diet, it has a much stronger marine/reef component than any other Maya site studied…

  • Testing the Nature of Teotihuacán Imperialism at Kaminaljuyú Using Phosphate Oxygen-Isotope Ratios

    Christine D White, Michael W Spence et al.ARTICLEJournal of Anthropological Research2000Citada por: 49

    Oxygen-isotope ratios of enamel phosphate from a sample of first and third molars from burials in the important state of Kaminalijuyú, Guatemala, have been used to identify individuals who were born in foreign regions or who relocated during late childhood. The goal of this research is to clarify the nature of the influence exercised by the larger Mesoamerican state of Teotihuacán, Mexico. A baseline that is isotopically distinct from the Valley …
