Inside this otherwise unremarkable terraced building platform is a series of interconnected vaulted passageways and horizontal ducts that spans three levels. In 2016, we conducted a comprehensive digital documentation of the exterior and interior surfaces and spaces of Satunsat via terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and structure-from- motion (SfM) photogrammetry. The result is a fused, geometrically accurate, full coverage model with exceptional color and texture fidelity. These data enabled a preliminary structural health assessment and evaluation of the varied masonry techniques employed in the construction of Satunsat and can inform future studies related to the structure’s function and meaning. 1. -

This review outlines the Lamanai our eyes from the forest canopy, from incised stelae example and considers comparable patterns of and from sculptured mask panels. 1l1ese are the great variation in architectural forms of pyramid-temples at signature pieces of Maya artistic production. They other sites in the Maya area. cap the ruins that initially attracted archaeological attention, and they continue to draw world-class As a secondary theme I am concerned with the con tourism to the Maya area. A constant· stream of ceptual role played by the pyramid, and with the vacationers shuffles past these great works, now underlying reasons that impelled the Maya to include cleared and restored. But they are seen merely as such costly and time-consuming features as prominent curiosities touted to sell excursions from Caribbean parts oftheir major temples. It is generally taken more resorts. In ancient times, however, they were certainly or less for granted that Maya pyramids were employed not for holiday amusement; they .were central to the to raise the "temples" at their summits to a civic and political life of Maya communities. Over commanding position of height (see, for example, centuries the Maya invested an enormous amount of Stierlin 1968:96). This view of the structures is time, energy, skill and resources in their production, certainly correct, and the idea has obvious value; I and their functioning is generally acknowledged to suspect, however, that it may not be the whole story. -
1 the Ancient Maya City: Anthropogenic Landscapes, Settlement Archaeology, and Caracol, Belize
1 THE ANCIENT MAYA CITY: ANTHROPOGENIC LANDSCAPES, SETTLEMENT ARCHAEOLOGY, AND CARACOL, BELIZE Arlen F. Chase and Diane Z. Chase Maya archaeology has seen substantial effort invested in mapping and recording site plans and boundaries. This research has been particularly advanced through the application of LiDAR technology to the ancient Maya landscape, which has more easily permitted the registration of both the topography and the modifications made to the land surface – features only rarely mapped at large-scale by archaeological projects. When combined with over 30 years of archaeological research, LiDAR permits us to determine Caracol’s spatial and temporal boundaries and landscape modifications, as well as to demonstrate how the site operated as a city through the use of embedded administrative nodes connected to an extensive solar causeway system. A comparative review of settlement data in the Maya region indicates that the ancient Maya minimally had two kinds of cities. In one form of urbanism, such as at Caracol, sustainable agricultural practices could be carried out within the boundaries of the city; in the other form of Maya urbanism, the settlement was too dense and compact for the practice of sustainable agriculture, meaning that primary agricultural fields must have existed outside the city boundaries. This conclusion significantly advances our understanding of tropical urbanism in antiquity. Introduction it is nevertheless consistent with a form of urban development found in other tropical “To estimate population it is necessary to define environments around the world. Tropical the boundaries of sites. This is not an easy urbanism is often characterized by a dispersed matter in parts of the Maya lowlands.” settlement pattern that is fully integrated with (Rice and Culbert 1990:20) agriculture – forming a truly “green” city in the sense of modern aspirations. -

This is not a general bibliography on Maya Architecture. This section lists publications on Maya Architecture that include attention to the Puuc Region. Publications on individual Puuc sites are usually listed only in their own sections of this subject matter bibliography. Publications by and about early explorers and scholars are listed in that section, even though they sometimes deal extensively with Puuc architecture. A Abrams, Elliot Marc How the Maya Built Their World: Energetics and Ancient Architecture. Austin: University of Texas Press, 1994. Based on a study of the residential architecture at Copán, the author attempts to demonstrate the usefulness of “architectural energetics” in understanding ancient civilizations. As the author writes: “By converting buildings into the energy and labor expended in their construction, a series of reconstructions concerning social power, labor organization, and economics can be generated.” Thus, the book includes 12 tables with titles such as “Operations, Tasks, and Costs per Task in Construction”, “Cumulative Energy Cost per Major Construction Episode”, and Hierarchic Social structure based on Residential Cost”. The few conclusions reached regarding the Maya at Copån do not seem to need the elaborate structure of the book. For example, the first conclusion states that “in addition to their greater symbolic value, improved 2 residential structures provided their occupants with an enhanced biopsychological quality of life, particularly in terms of health and comfort. -
