Groundwork for the Anthropology of Belgium
Like the European Union itself, the anthropology of Europe has been slowly developing for decades. Yet compared to their colleagues working at more conventional non-Western field sites, ethnographers studying present-day Europe are focusing on a region that still exists at the margins of the discipline.

Ancient Maya Mosaic Mirrors
This paper examines the composite lithic artifacts of the ancient Maya commonly termed “mirrors.” Typically flat, shiny objects with polished iron-ore polygons fitted in a mosaic pattern onto a slate backing, we assess these plaques for the technological, spatiotemporal, and functional contexts of their manufacture. Data from over 500 archaeological specimens, from dozens of Maya sites in Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Honduras, were examined as p…
Deciphering Ancient Maya Ethno-Metaphysics

Indeed, an existential archaeology is permissible when the archaeological record is sufficiently comprised of data pertaining to cognition, as is certainly the case with the ancient Maya. The terms conduit and vessel connote a container apparatus demarcating between an inside and an outside space…

Although "ethnometaphysics" has been cited sporadically by anthropologists over the past half-century, it never really caught on as an interdisciplinary special…
