  • Traditional and Geometric Morphometrics and Invariant Shape Descriptors of Catfish Otoliths in the Yucatán Peninsula: Tools for Species Identification and Individual Size Estimation at Maya Archaeolog…

    Open Access•Ariana Solis‐Gómez, Jorge Luis Pérez‐Gonzalez et al.•ARTICLE•Archaeometry•2025•References: 45

    This study investigates the use of otolith shape analysis for species identification and size estimation in Ariopsis felis and Bagre marinus , based on 181 modern otoliths obtained from a scientific collection and recent sampling in the coastal regions of Campeche and Yucatán, as well as 39 archaeological otoliths corresponding to the Early Classic and Late Classic periods of the Maya culture, from three pre‐Hispanic coastal settlements: Xcambó, …

  • Animal Provisioning at Chichen Itza and Isla Cerritos: A Zooarchaeological Review of Faunal Utilization

    Open Access•Nayeli G Jiménez Cano•ARTICLE•Ancient Mesoamerica•2023

    Zooarchaeological data are presented to examine aspects of animal resources utilization at Chichen Itza and Isla Cerritos during the Terminal Classic. Through the review of zooarchaeological records, a differential pattern emerges based on contextual and environmental origins of the identified taxa, highlighting the ritual importance of coastal species at Chichen Itza. In addition, the transportation network of animals and animal parts from the p…

  • Rituales de terminación y consumo en el Palacio 6J2 de La Blanca: Una perspectiva zooarqueológica del Clásico Terminal en el Petén guatemalteco

    Open Access•Nayeli G Jiménez Cano, Cristina Vidal Lorenzo•ARTICLE•Estudios de Cultura Maya•2021•Cited by: 1•References: 4

    La Blanca is an urban settlement located in the department of Petén, Guatemala. The site played an important role due to its strategic location alongside the Mopán River basin. This paper presents results of the zooarchaeological studies conducted on this archaeological site during the Classic Terminal period (850-1000 A.D.), a time of social upheaval in which the elite of La Blanca left the city and new inhabitants occupied the rooms of its monu…

  • Pre-Hispanic Maya fisheries and coastal adaptations in the northern lowlands from the Classic (500-900 AD) to Postclassic (900-1400 AD) periods

    Open Access•Nayeli G Jiménez Cano•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2019•Cited by: 2•References: 28

    Recent studies of fish remains at Mayan settlements from the Classic (500-900 AD) and Postclassic (900-1400 AD) periods are examined. These analyses deepen our understanding of ancient Maya fishing practices and coastal ecosystems and call into question traditional paradigms of environmental stability in the northern Maya lowlands. The effects of droughts recorded during the Maya collapse (800-1000 AD) led to an overall reduction in freshwater in…

  • Pesquerías en un asentamiento costero maya del período clásico: Análisis ictioarqueológicos en Xcambó (Yucatán, México)

    Open Access•Nayeli G Jiménez Cano, Thelma N Sierra Sosa•ARTICLE•Antípoda Revista de Antropología…•2018•Cited by: 2•References: 19

    This paper presents the results of an analysis of fish remains from the pre-Hispanic coastal settlement of Xcambó, Yucatan, Mexico dating from the Early to Late Classical period (350-750 AD). This is one of the first ichthyoarchaeological studies in a Mayan settlement with a dominant presence of fishes in the zooarchaeological assemblage. The results showed an abundance of estuarine species such as sharks, snooks and catfishes, which were particu…

  • Fishing in the northern Maya lowlands AD 250–750: Preliminary analysis of fish remains from Xcambo, Yucatan, Mexico

    Nayeli G Jiménez Cano, Thelma Sierra Sosa•ARTICLE•Environmental Archaeology•2015•Cited by: 4•References: 8

    The relationship between the sea and human populations in the Maya world during Prehispanic times is well supported through iconographic and ethnohistoric evidence. The nature and importance of fish resource exploitation, however, during the most important period of Maya history, the Classic Period (AD 250–900), remains largely unknown. Xcambó (AD 250–750) was an important commercial port located in the north coast of the Yucatán peninsula. Accor…

  • Isotopic Investigation of Animal Husbandry in the Welsh and English Periods at Dryslwyn Castle, Carmarthenshire, Wales

    Open Access•Andrew R Millard, N G Jimenez‐cano et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2013•Cited by: 4•References: 37

    Dryslwyn Castle in southwest Wales was founded by a Welsh lord in the AD 1220s, captured by the English in 1287, and declined from c.1407 until it was abandoned c.1450. In contrast to historical evidence for changes in procurement of meat, previous zooarchaeological work has suggested that throughout these three periods, there was no change in the supply of animals. We have analysed the stable carbon and nitrogen isotope values of 20 cattle and 2…
