Foto: Alicia Hermosillo EDITORIAL Al agua... ombre al agua; no sólo es una expresión de alguien que se cae al agua y necesita de auxilio; también la expresión H invita a un cambio total de la forma de vida y un escape de la rutina diaria. Para mucha gente su amor al agua y de su pasión para los barcos es demasiado y deciden darle vuelta a su forma de vida y temporalmente vivir en una embarcación y gozar de más libertad, al desligarse de las pertenencias que no necesitan. El barco se convierte en su casa por algún tiempo, permitiendo además acercarse a los sitios más alejados y que sólo están disponibles mediante esta manera de viajar y vivir. Para ciertas personas que eligen permanecer un tiempo en un barco, en lo profundo lo que desean es simplificar sus vidas; con menor complejidad cotidiana, obteniendo paz mental y vida relajada. Sin la necesidad de muchas posesiones materiales ya que no hay donde ponerlas y muchos aprecian las pocas cosas que tienen. Te invitamos a valorar las cosas simples mediante “Los Live Aboard. El placer de vacacionar” El placer que se tiene al llegar a lugares remotos y deshabitados, también es compartido al poder observar unas de las especies de mayor colorido que existen en el mundo marino; sus colores radiantes son parte de su sistema de defensa, informando a sus atacantes que a mayor color, mayor toxicidad. El haber evolucionado de los caracoles y quitarse un gran peso de encima que era su gran protección, se ven expuestos al tener sus “Branquias al desnudo. Mimetismo especial”; conozcamos más sobre diversas habilidades para subsistir. La asociación del hombre con el agua no se da tan sólo en el mar, existe en el continente zonas con cuerpos de agua que han despertado en 2 diferentes culturas aparte de su permanencia, una asociación y atracción muy especial; en uno la quietud de sus aguas reflejan tanto en la aurora como al ponerse el sol un brillo chispeante, por lo que los Guaraníes lo nombraron “Ibera. Aguas brillantes” conozcamos más de esta reserva natural tierra adentro. Y en otro los Mayas y su íntima asociación con los cuerpos de agua localizados en el subsuelo; gracias a la tenacidad de investigadores podemos seguir conociendo parte de esta profunda relación entre esta gran cultura y los más de 4500 cenotes, que son la entrada al inframundo; así hoy damos a conocer “En un Cenote Yucateco. Descubriendo rituales”. El buceo no es un deporte de superficie ni de superficialidades, ESpacio profundo va a lo profundo, y no Solo En El agua... ...7 El arte de navegar y el placer de bucear El placer para nunca habían sido vacacionar tan accesibles.

Jasinski Department of Archaeology and Religious Studies Faculty of Humanities Norwegian University of Technology and Science (NTNU) Front page illustration: Cenote Nomozon, Yucatan (photo by author) iv Sometimes the great mutations in scientific thought can perhaps be read as the consequence of a discovery, but they can also be read as the appearance of new forms in the will to truth - Michel Foucault (1981: 54) v vi Abstrakt Denne masteravhandlingen tar for seg den arkeologiske kunnskapsdannelsen om mayaenes cenoter på Yucatanhalvøya i Mexico gjennom en analyse av fenomenets forskningshistorie. Cenoter kan beskrives som vannfylte huleformasjoner eller synkehull som er tilknyttet grunnvannet. Siden Yucatanhalvøya mangler overflatevann i form av elver og innsjøer, har cenotene vært viktige og pålitelige kilder til vann. I og med at store mengder arkeologisk materiale – inkludert beinmateriale fra mennesker – har blitt funnet i cenoter, regner man også med at cenotene var viktige offerplasser for mayaene. Det spanske ordet cenote er en korrumpert versjon mayaenes tz’onot eller ds’onot. Følgende to forskningsspørsmål stilles til den arkeologiske litteraturen om cenoter: I. Hvordan har den arkeologiske kunnskapen om cenotene utviklet seg fra 1880 til 2013? II. Hvordan kan kunnskapsdannelsen til cenotene som fenomener for arkeologiske studier bli beskrevet og forklart på bakgrunn av aktør-nettverk teori og diskursanalyse av cenotenes forskningshistorie? Ved hjelp av en teoretisk og metodisk tilnærming forankret i diskursteori og aktør-nettverk teori, blir den arkeologiske kunnskapsdannelsen analysert i sin historiske kontekst fra arkeologiens begynnelse i området (ca.

  • Maya Wetlands Ecology and Pre-Hispanic Utilization of Wetlands in Nortwestern Belize
    MAYA WETLANDS ECOLOGY AND PRE-HISPANIC UTILIZATION OF WETLANDS IN NORTHWESTERN BELIZE by Jeffrey Lee Baker _______________________ Copyright © Jeffrey Lee Baker 2003 A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of Anthropology In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In the Graduate College The University of Arizona 2 0 0 3 2 3 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This endeavor would not have been possible with the assistance and advice of a number of individuals. My committee members, Pat Culbert, John Olsen and Owen Davis, who took the time to read and comment on this work Vernon Scarborough and Tom Guderjan also commented on this dissertation and provided additional support during the work. Vernon Scarborough invited me to northwestern Belize to assist in his work examining water management practices at La Milpa. An offer that ultimately led to the current dissertation. Without Tom Guderjan’s offer to work at Blue Creek in 1996, it is unlikely that I would ever have completed my dissertation, and it is possible that I might no longer be in archaeology, a decision I would have deeply regretted. In Belize, this fieldwork was facilitated by permits from the Department of Archaeology in Belmopan to the Programme-for-Belize Archaeological Project in 1995 and 1997, and to the Blue Creek Archaeological Project in 1996, 1997 and 1998. Project directors, Fred Valdez, Nicholas Dunning and Laura Levi of the Programme for Belize Archaeological Project. Both Nicholas Dunning and Tim Beach provided valuable insight during their visit to Sierra de Agua in 1997. Financial support for this dissertation came from several sources.

While water is of paramount importance, permanent settlement secondarily requires farmable soil, a resource often as precious as water in many parts of the Yucatan.

  • 231 People Graduated from Burlington High School in Vermont in 1957
    Dedicated to Young People Just Starting Out 50 Years of Life Experience 231 people graduated from Burlington High School in Vermont in 1957. Now we have been out of high school for fifty years. Each of us has had experiences that are useful and fun for others our own age and for young people to read. By reading about our work, our adventures, our good times and bad, what we learned and how we accomplished what we did, young folks might pick up a few things that could help them as they go out into the world.

In a speech at Union College in 1847, as David Lowenthal tell us, Marsh urged that “history in a democracy should be about the people themselves, historians should inquire into the fortunes of the mass, their opinions, their characters, their leading impulses, their ruling hopes and fears, their arts and industry and commerce; we must see them at their daily occupations in the field, the workshop, and the market.” - we hope you like our effort, George.
