Abstract:
AbstractThis brief essay argues that studying the non-Spanish inhabitants of Yucatan's past requires bridging the social distance generated by differences of time and culture and that the specific nature of that distance must first be understood. With respect to the Mayas, their mystique in the modern popular and academic imaginations is as much the creation of Maya elites in ancient and colonial times as it is the product of archaeologists and historians. To demystify the Maya, we must engage mundane as well as exotic sources and be aware of the obfuscating influence of those who interpreted

Genealogical relationships revealed the presence of two genetic groups that have gone through different demographic events, one in the Yucatan Peninsula and the other in the Pacific slope.

Abstract:
Archaeologists have long noted similarities between the lithic artifacts of the first colonists of the Greater Antilles (ca. 3500-2000 B.C.) and those from the eastern Yucatán Peninsula. Recent archaeological work in northern Belize has provided additional archaeological information on the characteristics and dating of the mainland assemblages. New findings by Caribbean archaeologists also have contributed to a clearer picture of the circumstances surrounding the first human migration to the Greater Antilles. A Yucatecan origin for the first Caribbean migrants is now considered probable.

Abstract:
The Yucatan neotropical rattlesnake (Crotalus tzabcan) is a crotalid endemic to the Yucatan Peninsula. Although it is widely distributed in this region, it is considered a highly elusive species, thus knowledge about its natural history is scarce, including observations on feeding ecology. Here, we report the first documented observation of a predation event of a wild C. tzabcan on a rat in a rural area in southern Quintana Roo, Mexico.

AbstractSince 1984, the Ek Balam Project has been investigating the organization and developmental history of a large Maya polity in the northeastern part of the Yucatan Peninsula. The survey included both urban Ek Balam, the largest regional center during the Late Classic period (a.d. 600–900), covering a minimum of 12 km2, and its rural hinterland. One result of this project has been the construction of a preliminary ceramic history of the region, the subject of this report. Evidence supports a sequence of occupations extending from the Middle Preclassic through the Hispanic period (600 b.c.

Abstract:
Muyil (Chunyaxche), Quintana Roo, Mexico, is a 50-ha ancient Maya site on the Yucatan peninsula that was among the first to be occupied on the east coast. Field research was conducted there between 1987 and 1991. The 32,000 sherds and artifacts analyzed are dated to all periods between the Middle Formative (350 B.C.) and the Late Postclassic (A.D. 1550). No Spanish artifacts were found The site is on the karstic shelf (elevation 8 m) around a natural limestone collapse with Caribbean access by a 15-km route through freshwater lagoons and creeks.

This dissertation presents data to support the continuity of warfare throughout the Maya lowlands, and adjacent regions. I discuss the current problems with the archaeology of warfare, the continuity of conflict beginning with the Late Preclassic through the Terminal Classic. Additionally, I emphasize the influence that Teotihuacan had during the Early Classic throughout Mesoamerica, while in some areas there is evidence of diplomatic and economic relations, there is also clear evidence of forced relations at other sites. Conflict is identified on the archaeological record through the heterarc

Vegetation in the region is a mosaic of forest types with different structural appearances (Flores and Espejel Carvajal 1994; Hernández-Xolocotzi 1959; Miranda 1958) that primarily reflect variation in environmental and edaphic conditions (Ibarra-Manríquez 1996).

Abstract:
Modern-day deforestation in the southern Yucatán peninsular region began in earnest in the late 1960s. The composition of the region’s forest and options for land uses, however, were partly shaped by eighty years of activity leading up to the 1960s, just as it was by the ancient Maya over a millennium ago (Ch. 2). Most of the modern impacts began in the twentieth century and are traced here through three major episodes of use and occupation of the region: forest extraction, 1880–1983; big projects and forest clearing, 1975–82; and land-use diversification, conservation, and tourism, 1983 to th
