The Terminal Classic Period at Ceibal and in the Maya Lowlands
THE TERMINAL CLASSIC PERIOD AT CEIBAL AND IN THE MAYA LOWLANDS Takeshi Inomata and Daniela Triadan University of Arizona Ceibal is well known for the pioneering investigations conducted by Harvard University in the 1960s (Sabloff 1975; Smith 1982; Tourtellot 1988; Willey 1990). Since then, Ceibal has been considered to be a key site in the study of the Classic Maya collapse (Sabloff 1973a, 1973b; Sabloff and Willey 1967). The results of this project led scholars to hypothesize the following: 1) Ceibal survived substantially longer than other centers through the period of the Maya collapse; and 2) the new styles of monuments and new types of ceramics resulted from foreign invasions, which contributed to the Maya collapse. In 2005 we decided to revisit this important site to re-examine these questions in the light of recent developments in Maya archaeology and epigraphy. The results of the new research help us to shape a more refined understanding of the political process during the Terminal Classic period. The important points that we would like to emphasize in this paper are: 1) Ceibal did not simply survive through this turbulent period, but it also experienced political disruptions like many other centers; 2) this period of political disruptions was followed by a revival of Ceibal; and 3) our data support the more recent view that there were no foreign invasions; instead the residents of Ceibal were reorganizing and expanding their inter-regional networks of interaction. Ceibal is located on the Pasión River, and a comparison with the nearby Petexbatun centers, including Dos Pilas and Aguateca, is suggestive. -
Late Classic Maya Political Structure, Polity Size, and Warfare Arenas
LATE CLASSIC MAYA POLITICAL STRUCTURE, POLITY SIZE, AND WARFARE ARENAS Arlen F. CHASE and Diane Z. CHASE Department of Sociology and Anthropology University of Central Florida Studies of the ancient Maya have moved forward at an exceedingly rapid rate. New sites have been discovered and long-term excavations in a series of sites and regions have provided a substantial data base for interpreting ancient Maya civili- zation. New hieroglyphic texts have been found and greater numbers of texts can be read. These data have amplified our understanding of the relationships among subsistence systems, economy, and settlement to such an extent that ancient Maya social and political organization can no longer be viewed as a simple dichoto- mous priest-peasant (elite-commoner) model. Likewise, monumental Maya archi- tecture is no longer viewed as being indicative of an unoccupied ceremonial center, but rather is seen as the locus of substantial economic and political activity. In spite of these advances, substantial discussion still exists concerning the size of Maya polities, whether these polities were centralized or uncentralized, and over the kinds of secular interactions that existed among them. This is espe- cially evident in studies of aggression among Maya political units. The Maya are no longer considered a peaceful people; however, among some modern Maya scholars, the idea still exists that the Maya did not practice real war, that there was little destruction associated with military activity, and that there were no spoils of economic consequence. Instead, the Maya elite are portrayed as engaging predo- minantly in raids or ritual battles (Freidel 1986; Schele and Mathews 1991). -

La Ciudad De Machaquila
1 LA CIUDAD DE MACHAQUILA Jorge E. Chocón Juan Pedro Laporte El río Machaquila es uno de los afluentes mayores en Petén y es una de las fuentes principales del río Pasión y, por lo tanto, parte de la vertiente del sistema Usumacinta (Laporte et al. 2001). Es un río mayor que recorre un amplio territorio (varias hojas cartográficas: Montañas Mayas, Machaquila, Concoma, Río San Juan, Santa Amelia - al menos 80 km). El río Machaquila nace en la sección más alta de las Montañas Mayas, el cual ocupa en territorio beliceño parte de los distritos de El Cayo y Toledo. Al descender la montaña atraviesa el municipio de Poptun y, ya en sectores de tierra baja, parte del de Sayaxche. Aunque gran parte del terreno que recorre es de carácter calcáreo, no parece tener dolinas, por lo que no se resume en el subsuelo (Laporte 2001). La confluencia del río Concoma marca el inicio de la sección baja del río Machaquila, que se extiende hasta la unión del río Santa Amelia, por cerca de 40 km, el río corre a una menor altura de hasta 200 m sobre el nivel del mar. Es una zona poco conocida en un nivel arqueológico y en él se localiza el sitio mayor conocido como Machaquila. La cuenca baja del río Machaquila abarca un amplio territorio de compleja topografía dado lo quebrado de la serranía cárstica que allí se desarrolla. A partir de la confluencia del río Concoma, el Machaquila sigue adelante hasta confluir a su vez con el río Santa Amelia, el cual – aunque no es tan largo como aquel – tiene un caudal mayor, por lo que adopta entonces el nombre Santa Amelia y ya no Machaquila. -
The Glyph for Antler in the Mayan Script
f No. 11, 2004 WAYEB NOTES ISSN 1379-8286 THE GLYPH FOR ANTLER IN THE MAYAN SCRIPT Luís Lopes1 and Albert Davletshin2 1 email: [email protected] 2 Institute for Oriental and Classical Studies, Russian State University for the Humanities, Moscow email: [email protected] The glyph numbered 291 in Sir John Eric Thompson’s catalogue (1962), T291, depicts a ‘deer antler’. In the Classic Period inscriptions the sign in question is quite frequently found in the name phrases of powerful humans, deities and supernatural creatures. Some examples are given below: ’a?-[ku?]-lu-mu-chi ’a?-[ku?]-lu-ANTLER-b’a – the name of a deity recorded on La Mar Stela 1, A11 (Fig.1), and on the Sotheby’s Panel, I2 (Fig. 2); ANTLER-chi-CHAN – the name of the so-called ‘Deer-Snake’ on codex style ceramics (Fig. 3); YAX-ANTLER-JOL – the name of the 4th king of Yaxchilan (Fig. 4); ANTLER-CHAN-na-’a-ku – the name of a captive from Hiix-Witz recorded at Yaxchilan (Fig. 5); ANTLER--INVERTED-VASE - title of the Yaxchilan king Ya’xuun-B'ahlam IV, also applied to earlier Yaxchilan kings and possibly recorded on the San Diego Cliff carving (Figs. 6, 7, 9, 10 and 11); T4--ANTLER--INVERTED-EARTH, T4--’a--ANTLER--INVERTED-EARTH – a title of th the 26 king of Tikal (Jasaw-Chan-K'awiil’s title) on Tikal Stela 5 (Fig. 8), and bones and jade vessel from Tikal Burial 116 (MT38A, 38C, 38D, 50, and MT56).1 In this note we present iconographic and phonetic evidence that points towards a reading of XUKUB' "horn, deer antler" for this glyph. -

The Dynastic Sequence of Dos Pilas, Guatemala
PRE-COLUMBIAN ART RESEARCH INSTITUTE MONOGRAPH 1 The Dynastic Sequence of Dos Pilas, Guatemala Stephen D. Houston Peter Mathews Pre-Columbian Art Research Institute San Francisco, California April 1985 The Dynastic Sequence Of Dos Pilas, Guatemala STEPHEN D. HOUSTON, Yale University and PETER MATHEWS, Peabody Museum, Harvard University o the west of Lake Petexbatun, Peten, Guatemala, lies a region in which no fewer than five sites occur within an area of 45 square kilometers (Figure I). T The largest of these sites, and the one with the greatest number of known ~onuments, is Dos Pilas (Figure 2). This paper reconstructs the dynastic sequence of Dos Pilas, documenting five rulers, and traces the historical connections between Dos Pilas, neighboring centers near Lake Petexbatun, and relevant sites along the Pasion River and in northeastern Peten. I The Emblem Glyph of Dos Pilas and environs was first detected by Heinrich Berlin (1960:26-27), who called it the "Laguna Petexbatun" Emblem Glyph and who noted its resemblance to the Emblem Glyph of Tikal.

LAS OFRENDAS DE COTZUMALGUAPA, GUATEMALA, EN EL CLÁSICO TARDÍO (650/700-1000 D.C.) ERIKA MAGALI GÓMEZ GONZÁLEZ
Instituto Politécnico de Tomar – Universidade de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro (Departamento de Geologia da UTAD – Departamento de Território, Arqueologia e Património do IPT) Master Erasmus Mundus em QUATERNARIO E PRÉ-HISTÓRIA Dissertação final: LAS OFRENDAS DE COTZUMALGUAPA, GUATEMALA, EN EL CLÁSICO TARDÍO (650/700-1000 d.C.) ERIKA MAGALI GÓMEZ GONZÁLEZ Orientador: Prof. Davide Delfino Co-Orientador: Dr. Oswaldo Chinchilla Júri: Ano académico 2010/2011 RESUMEN Se estudió un conjunto de artefactos que conforman las ofrendas de las estructuras y espacios de patios, de un conjunto arquitectónico descubierto en las inmediaciones del sitio El Baúl, localizado en la Zona arqueológica de Cotzumalguapa, departamento de Escuintla, Guatemala. Las 21 ofrendas tratadas, constituyen el primer hallazgo relativamente masivo de este tipo, localizado en esta zona, gracias a las excavaciones realizadas por el Proyecto Arqueológico Cotzumalguapa durante los años 2002, 2006 y 2007. Aquellas son manifestaciones de los comportamientos rituales de una parte de la sociedad costeña del sur, durante el periodo Clásico Tardío (650/700-1000 d.C.). Estos objetos habían sido tratados en forma breve en un artículo reciente (Méndez y Chinchilla s.f.). Sin embargo, la presente investigación se concentró en ciertos aspectos del propio contexto y en su comparación con los de otras áreas, para tratar de entender la intencionalidad de los depósitos. Existe variedad en los artefactos componentes de cada ofrenda. Se trata entonces de objetos de cerámica, en su mayoría vasijas, de servicio y en menor cantidad hay formas utilitarias, además de una figurilla. También hay objetos de obsidiana, exceptuando un núcleo prismático todos los demás son navajas prismáticas. -
