In conjunction with a larger weather system over Central America and Tropical Storm Cristobal over the Bay of Campeche, Amanda produced significant rainfall and flooding over portions of Central America and southeastern Mexico, resulting in 40 deaths in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Tropical Storm Amanda 2 Tropical Storm Amanda 30–31 MAY 2020 SYNOPTIC HISTORY Multiple factors appear to have led to Amanda’s formation. The convectively active phase of an eastward-moving Kelvin wave spread over the far eastern part of the North Pacific Ocean between 26 and 31 May, while at the same time a mid- to upper-level low closed off over northeastern Mexico. The upper-level diffluence associated with these features caused an overall increase in convection over the far eastern Pacific during that period, as well as the development of a broad area of low pressure south of Guatemala and El Salvador by 27 May. A low-latitude tropical wave, which had moved off the coast of Africa around 18 to 19 May, moved into the Pacific basin on 29 May and caused the broad low and associated convection to become more organized.

    FAMSI © 2003: Ivan Šprajc Archaeological Reconnaissance in Southeastern Campeche, México: 2002 Field Season Report With Appendices by Daniel Juárez Cossío and Adrián Baker Pedroza, and Nikolai Grube Research Year: 2002 Culture: Maya Chronology: Classic Location: Campeche, México Sites: Various Table of Contents Abstract Resumen Acknowledgments Introduction Comments on Particular Sites El Mameyal La Victoria Altar de los Reyes El Chismito Los Tambores Balakbal Altamira Other sites Concluding Remarks List of Figures Appendix 1: Emergency consolidation works at Mucaancah by Daniel Juárez Cossío and Adrián Baker Pedroza Appendix 2: Epigraphic Analysis of Altar 3 of Altar de los Reyes by Nikolai Grube Sources Cited Abstract The project represented the fourth season of reconnaissance works in an archaeologically little known region of central Maya Lowlands. Several formerly unknown archaeological sites were surveyed in the southeastern part of the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve and in the adjacent region to the east, and two large sites reported by Karl Ruppert’s expeditions in 1930s were reexamined. The location and basic characteristics of the sites, mainly pertaining to the Classic period, were recorded and some surface pottery was collected. At Altar de los Reyes, a major urban center, two main architectural complexes were mapped and some interesting sculpted monuments were found, including an extraordinary altar with a series of emblem glyphs. Resumen El proyecto representó la cuarta temporada de trabajos de reconocimiento en una región arqueológicamente poco conocida de las tierras bajas mayas centrales. Inspeccionamos varios sitios arqueológicos previamente desconocidos en la parte sureste de la Reserva de la Biósfera de Calakmul y en la región adyacente hacia el este, y reexaminamos dos sitios grandes reportados por las expediciones de Karl Ruppert en la década de 1930.
