The first section is organized as follows: 1. Profile of the Zone: environments, culture areas and chronologies 2. Known Sites: modes of iconographic representation and geographic context 3. Chronological sequences and stylistic analyses 4. Documentation and Known Sites: national inventories, systematic documentation and most prominent rock art sites 5. Legislation and institutional frameworks 6. Rock art and indigenous groups 7. Active site management 8. Conclusion II.

The whole region is characterized by common geomorphologic features, constituting three different natural environments. In the Atlantic east predominates extensive lowlands cut by a multitude of branched rivers. They cover a karstic underground formed by unfolded limestone. -
Martin Künne Y Matthias Strecker INTRODUCCION De Todas Las Manifestaciones Culturales Que Han Dejado Los Indígenas De México
Martin Künne y Matthias Strecker INTRODUCCION De todas las manifestaciones culturales que han dejado los indígenas de México y de América Central, los grabados y pinturas rupestres han recibido la menor atención. Aunque las representaciones rupestres pertenecen a los monumentos arqueológicos más visibles, solo raras veces se las incluyó en investigaciones sistemáticas. Desde los primeros informes y noticias de la mitad del siglo XIX se dejó su documentación a menudo a aficionados e investigadores autodidactas. De la misma manera se nota que tampoco la literatura especializada actual toma en cuenta las representaciones rupestres de la región. A pesar de que el recién editado "Handbook of Rock Art Research" (Whitley 2001) comprende cuatro regiones americanas, faltan completamente Mesoamérica y América Central. Por otro lado podemos constatar que muchas documentaciones e informes sobre el arte rupestre centroamericano han sido parciales y hacen difícil una visión del conjunto. Sus enfoques se limitan normalmente a perspectivas descriptivas. Solamente algunas tienen también carácter analítico (A. Stone 1995). Entre los pocos compendios que mencionan representaciones rupestres de México y de América Central están las publicaciones "Rock Art Studies: News of the World I" (Bahn y Fossati 1996) y "Arte Prehistórico de América" (Schobinger 1997). Nuestro libro tiene carácter bibliográfico. Su propósito es ser una guía para la búsqueda de fuentes de información y ofrecer una introducción al estudio sistemático del arte rupestre en el oriente de México y en Centroamérica; ampliando y actualizando la publicación anterior "Rock Art of East Mexico and Central America" (Strecker 1979). Se dirige tanto a especialistas, estudiantes y aficionados como a propietarios o indígenas quienes asuman el rol de "custodios naturales" de sitios con representaciones rupestres. -

A New Reading Proposal for the Water Scroll Sign T579 As YAM
Glyph Dwellers Report 63 November 2019 A New Reading Proposal for the Water Scroll Sign T579 as YAM Jens Rohark Cancún, Mexico The hieroglyph listed as T579 (Fig. 1a) in the Thompson (1962) catalog and ZUP in the catalog of Macri and Looper ( 2003), is only seldom attested in Maya hieroglyphic writing. Basically, it occurs in only few secure contexts: 1) as part of the emblem glyph of Altun Ha and its place name (Fig. 1b-d); 2) as part of the emblem glyph of Topoxte (Fig. 1.f), 3) in context of a female nominal phrase with the logogram EK' (Fig. 1g), 4) designating the name of a mountain, SAK-T579-wi-WITZ, (Fig. 1h), and 5) as part of the nominal phrase of a wahy being formerly known as "water-jaguar" (Fig. 1i). There are also some examples of T579 in fragmentary inscriptions, where the contexts are, however, not clear (Fig. 1j, k). So far, the most comprehensive study about the glyph T579, which is also known as the 'Water Scroll' Sign, has been published by Helmke, Guenter, and Wanyerka (2018). Their excellent article focuses on the appearances of the Water Scroll emblem glyph, which is associated with the Altun Ha royal family, and, as they argue, stresses the importance of Altun Ha despite of the seemingly small size of that site. The authors briefly mention the possible phonetic reading of the glyph as follows: "... in the absence of a fuller understanding of the semantics of this sign, we are not yet closer to proposing a decipherment. Yet, the iconography does, however, make it clear that the sign marks bodies of water, perhaps specifically freshwater, and may, in fact, represent a wave" (Helmke, Guenter and Wanyerka 2018: 115). -

ABSTRACT Guatemala has many archaeological sites from pre-colombian times. This characteristic creates a paradoji- cal and complex situation to Guatemala as a society. On one side, there exists a feeling of proud when sites like Tikal, Mirador or Yaxha are mentioned, but on the other side, also exits uncertainty on private lands due to the fear for expropriation from the State when archaeological sites occur in their terrain. Different forms for cultural preservation are presented and how this has developed through time in Guatemala. -

Aceptado: 12/mayo/2014 IZAPA, TAK’ALIK AB’AJ, KAMINALJUYU Y SAN BARTOLO: ELEMENTOS ICONOGRA FICOS Dossier DEL MUNDO SOBRENATURAL MAYA (texto) Rafael E. Villaseñor M. CEICUM Sinopsis A lo largo y ancho del territorio mesoamericano aparecen elementos que dan cuenta de las diferencias culturales entre los diversos pueblos que lo han habitado por milenios; no obstante, también se encuentran aquellos que demuestran la existencia de una continuidad que se extiende no sólo en el tiempo sino territorialmente y a través de las fronteras internas de Mesoamérica. En este sentido, existen algunos casos como el Dios del maíz que se exhibe temprano en la iconografía olmeca y de ahí se desarrolla hasta convertirse en el Dios bufón de los mayas, según lo expone Virginia Fields (1991). De la misma manera, se tienen en los monumentos de Izapa, así como en los de varias ciudades mayas de época temprana, tales como Tak’alik Ab’aj, Kaminaljuyú y San Bartolo, repre- sentaciones de unidades básicas en las imágenes, que muestran la concepción del mundo y de lo sobrenatural, que perduraron a lo largo del tiempo, llegando en algunos casos hasta la Colonia misma. Este artículo tiene como objeto principal exponer algunos casos concretos que exhiben tales elementos en los monumentos de las ciudades referidas. Abstract Along the Mesoamerican territory there are elements that account for cultural differences among the various peo- ples who have inhabited it for millennia; nevertheless, there are, as well, those that prove the existence of a con- tinuum which extends not only over time but territorially and across the inner frontiers of Mesoamerica. -
