  • Granite Value Among the Ancient Maya of Alabama, Belize

    Open AccessMeaghan Peuramaki-Brown, Meaghan M Peuramaki‐brown et al.ARTICLEAncient Mesoamerica2025

    This article outlines our research into granite use by the ancient Maya of the Alabama Townsite—a Late to Terminal Classic (ca. a.d. 700–900) rapid-growth community in East-Central Belize, part of the Eastern Maya Lowlands. One of our initial hypotheses regarding the seemingly sudden appearance of the town toward the end of the Late Classic period focused on granite as a staple resource exploited by its residents. We highlight current results of …

  • Maya Monumental “Boom”

    Meaghan M Peuramaki-Brown, Meaghan M Peuramaki‐brown et al.ARTICLEJournal of Field Archaeology2019Referencias: 37

    Boomtowns are the product of unique flows of development characterized by relatively rapid population growth and land conversion, and the sudden appearance of functional and place-making features, much of which may not be readily apparent in the archaeological record. While settlements may expand rapidly in the absence of these forms, and thus lie outside the boomtown definition, we propose that the process does, in fact, describe development at …

    Open AccessG D Wrobel, Gabriel Wrobel et al.ARTICLEAntiquity2017Citada por: 1Referencias: 3

    The Central Belize Archaeological Survey (CBAS) was initiated in 2005 as a sub-project of the Belize Valley Archaeological Reconnaissance project (BVAR; directed by Jaime Awe) to investigate the prehistoric Maya cemetery site of Caves Branch Rockshelter. Subsequently, we began to survey other nearby cave and rockshelter sites (Hardy 2009) and to excavate the monumental civic-ceremonial centre of Deep Valley (Jordan 2008). CBAS became an independe…

  • Contextualizing the Glyphic Texts of Tipan Chen Uitz, Cayo District, Belize

    Open AccessChristopher R Andres, Christopher Andres et al.ARTICLELatin American Antiquity2014Citada por: 10Referencias: 19

    The 2011 investigations of the Caves Branch Archaeological Survey at the large and recently documented Maya site of Tipan Chen Uitz resulted in the discovery of the site's first monument with a glyphic inscription. Prior to this discovery, the site's glyphic corpus was limited to a small collection of texts rendered on fragmentary ceramics. In this paper, we describe these sherds as well as the monument (Monument 1), report on their archaeologica…

  • Civic and Household Community Relationships at Teotihuacan, Mexico

    Open AccessShawn G Morton, Meaghan M Peuramaki-Brown et al.ARTICLECambridge Archaeological Journal2012Citada por: 8

    It is held that the study of complex societies can effectively focus on the human interactions that define communities. Given the operational primacy of architectural survey in archaeological investigations, with some prominent exceptions, it is surprising how little attention has been paid to how communities of varying scales can actually be identified using these data sets. This article weds a modified version of Yaeger and Canuto's (2000) ‘int…
