The Preclassic Settlement of Northwest Yucatan: Recharting the Pathway to Complexity
Outside the Hacienda Walls: The Archaeology of Plantation Peonage in Nineteenth-Century Yucatan - by Meyers, Allan
El antiguo puerto maya de Conil
Una revisión de los datos arqueológicos, históricos y cartográficos indica que el puerto y asentamiento prehispánico y colonial de Conil se ubicaba en los alrededores del moderno puerto y sitio arqueológico de Chiquilá, en la orilla sur de la Bahía de Yalahau en la costa norte de Quintana Roo. Ciertas evidencias también sugieren que Conil fue un importante puerto de comercio de larga distancia, y posible capital de una provincia costera en tiempo…
Puertos costeros del Postclásico Temprano en el norte de Yucatán
Una síntesis de datos reunidos en recientes reconocimientos arqueológicos en las costas de la península de Yucatán aporta nueva evidencia en apoyo de la idea de que los grupos que se establecieron en Chichén Itzá en el siglo X tenían un pronunciado enfoque marítimo. Estos grupos venían de una tradición cultural que se basaba en ]a explotación de recursos marinos y costeros, y en el aprovechamiento de las rutas comerciales del litoral de la peníns…

The Northern Maya Collapse and Its Aftermath
Recent adjustments to the chronology of the northern Maya Lowlands have brought about a closer alignment of the decline of Terminal Classic/Early Postclassic Yucatecan polities with the collapse of the southern Maya states. The collapse of the entire Classic-period societal structure throughout the lowlands can now be compressed into a 200- or 250-year period and seen as a progressive chain of events that began in the south and culminated with th…
Punta Canbalam in Context: A peripatetic coastal site in northwest Campeche, Mexico
Investigations at Punta Canbalam on the Gulf Coast of Campeche reveal it is probably the largest of several important but underreported trading sites on the pan-Mesoamerican maritime trade route. The coastline has been unstable for the last thousand years, subjecting the site to sea level changes and repeated episodes of beach erosion and redeposition. The relatively dense scatter of temporally mixed, highly weathered sherds and other artifacts o…
A Brief History of Underwater Archaeology in the Maya Area
Underwater archaeology in the Maya area during the twentieth century has gradually evolved from a avocational activity whose primary focus was on the recovery of artifacts to a subdiscipline with more focused professional concerns. The present synthesis outlines the history of underwater research throughout the Maya area, including projects at pre-Hispanic sites in the lowlands and highlands, as well as the exploration of offshore historic wrecks…

The Fall of Chichen Itza: A Preliminary Hypothesis
The fall of the Early Postclassic capital of Chichen Itza is generally described in native chronicles as the result of a widespread revolt of native Yucatec Maya against the Itzá rulers of northern Yucatan. This historic event was the outcome of complex social, economic, and ecological processes that ultimately led to the weakening and dissolution of the Itzá polity. The historic legends that trace the fall of the Itzá are a superficial manifesta…

Special Studies: The Obsidian Trade at Isla Cerritos, Yucatán, Mexico
Provenience analysis of a small sample of obsidian artifacts from Isla Cerritos, a Terminal Classic/Early Postclassic Itzá trading port on the north coast of Yucatán, indicates a wide range of raw material sources from Central Mexico to the Guatemalan Highlands. The overwhelming predominance of Central Mexican obsidian reinforces the notion that Isla Cerritos was the main trading port of Chichén Itzá. The analysis also provides an indirect approx…

The Political Geography of the Sixteenth Century Yucatan Maya: Comments and Revisions
Research on the political geography of sixteenth-century Yucatán is reviewed, and recent revisions of the traditional reconstruction advanced by Ralph L. Roys (1957) are discussed. Using data from historical sources and archaeological field surveys, additional changes in the boundaries of the provinces of Cupul, Chikinchel, and Tases are proposed
Long-Distance Exchange among the Maya: A Comment on Marcus
With good reason, several scholars have challenged the exaltation of long-distance trade as a prime mover in the rise of civilization. However, in dismissing the economic importance of long-distance exchange in the development of Maya civilization, Marcus (1983) has moved too far in the opposite direction
The Economic Systems of Ancient Oaxaca: A Regional Perspective [and Comments and Reply]
Archaeological data from a regional settlement pattern survey of the Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico, are used to monitor how scarce goods and resources were allocated to members of society through eight phases from 600 B.C. to A.D. 1520. The goal is to determine how distinct historical social structures performed economically in terms of the goods and resources recoverable archaeologically. Measures utilized include land use and settlement characterist…
