Lentza, , Nicholas P. Dunningb, Vernon L. Scarboroughc, Liwy Graziosod a Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221, United States b Department of Geography, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221, United States c Department of Anthropology, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221, United States d Museo Miraflores, Guatemala City, Guatemala ABSTRACT Over the time span of more than a millennium, the ancient Maya polity of Tikal went through periods of growth, reorganization and adaptive cycles of various connected scales. Recent data show that following the reorganization of the Late Preclassic period, Tikal experienced an extended period of technological innovation and population growth that eventually stretched the carrying capacity of the available landscape. A hydraulic system was constructed that provided water for the community during the dry seasons: a powerful development in an area without a permanent water source. Agriculture was intensified using a combination of root crop agriculture, irrigated fields, arboriculture, household gardens, short fallow cropping systems and bajo margin cultivation. The net product of these diverse production activities helped to underwrite an enormous amassing of economic and political capital during the Late Classic period. Ultimately, in the mid-9th century CE, expansive growth combined with multiple system disturbances led to a collapse of the city’s social structure followed by abandonment of the site.
