May 1, 2008 iii DEDICATED TO MY LOVING WIFE AND SONS Lindsey, Josh, and Jamie iv ABSTRACT SYMBOL OF CONQUEST, ALLIANCE, AND HEGEMONY: THE IMAGE OF THE CROSS IN COLONIAL MEXICO Zachary Wingerd, PhD. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2008 Supervising Professor: Douglas Richmond The universality of the cross image within the transatlantic confrontation meant not only a hegemony of culture, but of symbolism. The symbol of the cross existed in both European and American societies hundreds of years before Columbus. In both cultures, the cross was integral in religious ceremony, priestly decoration, and cosmic maps. As a symbol of life and death, of human and divine suffering, of religious and political acquiescence, no other image in transatlantic history has held such a perennial, powerful message as the cross. For colonial Mexico, which felt the brunt of Spanish initiative, the symbol of the cross penetrated the autochthonous culture out of which the independent nation and indigenous church were born. -

Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Me´xico, [email protected] 2Caribbean Marine Mammal Laboratory, Department of Science and Technology, Universidad Metropolitana, P. O. Box 361715, San Juan, PR 00936 USA ABSTRACT.—The status of manatees along the northern and western coasts of the Yucata´n Peninsula is poorly known. The objective of this study was to gather information about the distribution and abundance of manatees in this region. We interviewed local fishermen and authorities along the northern coast of the Peninsula in December 1999 and made three aerial surveys over the northern and western coasts of the Peninsula in March, August, and October 2000. Interviews suggest that manatee abundance was much higher in the past and that possible causes for population decline included hunting for local consumption and increased fishing, which entangled and frightened manatees. None of those interviewed had seen manatees in the last five years and we saw only one adult manatee. Manatee abundance along the northern and western coasts of the Yucata´n Peninsula is very low despite the presence of adequate habitat along the northern coast of Quintana Roo, from El Cuyo to Yalahau Lagoon; along the northern coast of Yucata´n, from Dzilam de Bravo to Rı´o Lagartos; along the western coast of the Peninsula, from Celestu´ n to Champoto´n; and in the Te´rminos Lagoon. -
María Uicab: Reina, Sacerdotisa Y Jefa Militar De Los Mayas Rebeldes De Yucatán (1863–1875)

Sobre este acontecimiento se ha escrito gran cantidad de tex- tos, pero la gran mayoría ha ignorado el papel de las mujeres en el levantamiento y en la sociedad autónoma que los rebeldes organizaron en los montes del actual territorio de Quintana Roo. El presente trabajo se ocupa de analizar la participación de algunas muje- res consideradas de la nobleza en la organización teocrática militar de los mayas rebeldes, en especial el de la reina y sacerdotisa María Uicab. MARÍA UICAB: QUEEN, PRIESTESS, AND MILITARY LEADER OF MAYA REBELS IN YUCATAN (1863–1875) Abstract An Indian rebellion referred to by historians as the Caste War broke out in Yucatan, Mexico, in 1847. While much has been written on the subject, few texts have examined the role played by women in the uprising and in the autonomous society set up by rebels in the back country of what is today Quintana Roo. This article looks at the participation of women members of the nobility in organizing a military theocracy, in particular the role played by Maria Uicab, queen and priestess. * Georgina Rosado Rosado (mexicana) es maestra en antropología Social por El Colegio de Michoacán.

Reducing Vulnerability of Ports and Harbors to Earthquake-Tsunami Hazards
REDUCING VULNERABILITY OF PORTS AND HARBORS TO EARTHQUAKE-TSUNAMI HAZARDS James W. Good, Oregon Sea Grant Robert F. Goodwin, Washington Sea Grant Nathan J. Wood, U.S. Geological Survey Introduction Over the past decade, the threat of very large earthquakes and tsunamis in the Pacific Northwest has been well documented by the scientific community. Such events pose significant threats to coastal communities, including a great potential for life loss and damage to development. Damage could result from numerous earthquake-related hazards, such as severe ground shaking, soil liquefaction, landslides, and tsunami inundation. Because of their geographic location, ports and harbors are especially vulnerable to these hazards. Ports and harbors are important, economically and socially, to communities and will also be vital as post-event, response-recovery transportation links. Oregon Sea Grant, Washington Sea Grant, the NOAA Coastal Services Center (NOAA CSC), and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Center for Science Policy have undertaken an initiative to increase the resiliency of Pacific Northwest ports and harbors to earthquake and tsunami hazards. Specific products of this research, planning, and outreach initiative include a regional stakeholder needs assessment, a community-based mitigation planning process aimed at ports and harbors, a GIS-based vulnerability assessment methodology, a regional data archive, and an educational web-site. This paper summarizes our research, planning, and outreach initiative, including results of two pilot demonstration projects, one in Yaquina Bay, Oregon and the other in Sinclair Inlet, Washington. Earthquake and Tsunami Hazards and Scenarios Just 15 years ago, the Pacific Northwest (PNW) was considered a relatively low risk zone for earthquake and tsunami hazards. -
Excavation of the Platform of Venus, Chichén Itzá, Yucatán, México: the Pioneering Field Work of Alice Dixon Le Plongeon and Augustus Le Plongeon

Desmond 2008 Excavation of the Platform of Venus, Chichén Itzá, Yucatán, México: The pioneering fieldwork of Alice Dixon Le Plongeon and Augustus Le Plongeon.

Abstract During November1883, Alice Dixon Le Plongeon and Augustus Le Plongeon excavated the Platform of Venus at Chichén Itzá, Yucatán, México. They recorded the location and numbers of artifacts such as cone shaped carved stones, a statue, urn, and tenoned serpent heads in their field notes. Equally important, they recognized the importance of colors painted on the tenoned serpent heads and recorded them. They drew a plan and section of the platform, and took photographs of their excavation and the objects they found. To photograph the artifacts within the excavation pit with the photographic technology of the 1880s was a major accomplishment that resulted in an important record of that structure and its contents. An introduction to the current paper A version of this paper was first given at the annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology in Minneapolis, Minnesota in April 1982 when I was a graduate student at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
