The Ventrally Placed, Legs Flexed (VPLF) burials at the site of Lamanai in Belize, dating to the Postclassic period (1000 - 1544), have been recorded as a Maya mortuary pattern since the late 1970’s. -

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). -

A Distinctive Maya Architectural Format: the Lamanai Temple

Stanley Loten Introduction At Lamanai, as at Tikal, the ancient Maya maintained and repeated the same distinctive temple form over a Towering pyramidal temples, arresting dynastic significantly long time span at different locations portraits, fantastic.mythological figures; they leap to within the site. This review outlines the Lamanai our eyes from the forest canopy, from incised stelae example and considers comparable patterns of and from sculptured mask panels. 1l1ese are the great variation in architectural forms of pyramid-temples at signature pieces of Maya artistic production. They other sites in the Maya area. cap the ruins that initially attracted archaeological attention, and they continue to draw world-class As a secondary theme I am concerned with the con tourism to the Maya area. A constant· stream of ceptual role played by the pyramid, and with the vacationers shuffles past these great works, now underlying reasons that impelled the Maya to include cleared and restored. But they are seen merely as such costly and time-consuming features as prominent curiosities touted to sell excursions from Caribbean parts oftheir major temples. It is generally taken more resorts. In ancient times, however, they were certainly or less for granted that Maya pyramids were employed not for holiday amusement; they .were central to the to raise the "temples" at their summits to a civic and political life of Maya communities. Over commanding position of height (see, for example, centuries the Maya invested an enormous amount of Stierlin 1968:96). This view of the structures is time, energy, skill and resources in their production, certainly correct, and the idea has obvious value; I and their functioning is generally acknowledged to suspect, however, that it may not be the whole story. -
