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.

  • On the Escarcega-Chetumal.Highway, and Are Believed to Be Representative of Ancient Rural Settlement of the Rio Bec Region
    56 ANCIENT AGRICULTURAL FARMSTEADS IN THE RIO BEC REGION OF YUCATAN Jack D. Eaton Introduction The subject of this report is the description and analysis of Maya farmsteads of Classic period date in the Rio Bec region of Yucatan (Fig. 1). The farmsteads are associated with artificial field ridges and hillside terraces. These probably had both agricultural and non-agricultural functions. Hillside terraces, or ridges, were first reported in the Rio Bec region by Ruppert and Denison (1943: 13, 50) These land features were noted in the southern part of the region and were simply referred to as "check dams. " Ridges and terraces were also noted by me during explorations in the region during 1966-67, and again in 1970 when the ruins of Chicanna were excavated (Eaton 1974a: 51). In 1971 I continued reconnaissance (Eaton Ms.), which coinsided with one of the most ambitious seasons of milpa clearing in the region in modern times. This was a result of a marked increase in the regional population, notably roadside settlements that appeared with the construc- tion of the new trans-peninsula highway (HWY 186). After the milpas were burned, field ridges and hillside terracing suddenly became manifest in nearly every field examined. This clearly demonstrated what was previously suspected; that there had been an intense development of the land surface throughout the region in ancient times. Also noted in the fields, and clearly associated with the land development, were the remains of ancient structures. These included platform mounds and the base walls of small houses. The platforms and the houses were found individually and in groups, and certainly represent farmsteads.

Geography of the Maya World In pre-Hispanic times the Mayas occupied a wide region with different climates and varied vegetation: mountains and plains, rain forest and arid areas; lands with rivers, lakes and waterfalls, and long stretches of seacoast. The Maya area covered what are now the states of Quintana Roo, Campeche, Yucatan, Tabasco and eastern Chiapas in Mexico; Guatemala, Belize, and the western part of Hon- duras and El Salvador in Central America. There are three large natural areas within this region: the first, the Southern area, includes the Pacific coast, the Highlands of Guatemala, part of Chiapas and of El Sal- vador.

    THE "PALACES" AT SAYIL ELITE RESIDENCES OR CIVIC STRUCTURES? George F. Andrews University of Oregon 1 r THE "PALACES" AT SAYIL: ELITE RESIDENCES OR CIVIC STRUCTURES? George F. Andrews University of Oregon 3 Wmmmm SAYIL, Structure 2M (Palace). View of West Winq, south side. THE "PALACES" AT SAYIL: ELITE RESIDENCES OR "CIVIC" STRUCTURES? Introduction The use (or misuse) of the term "palace" to describe a great variety of different building forms as found in the lowland Maya area has a long and varied history. Beginning with the Spanish Conquistadores, who spoke of the great Maya palacios (palaces), the term palace has become firmly imbedded in the literature describing Maya culture and Maya settlements. The general outline of the history of the use of the term "palace" has been reviewed in some detail by both Harrison (1970) and Kowalski (1987) and need not be repeated here. Suffice it to say that both noted that the term "palace" was generally used to distinguish multi-chambered buildings, often with complex ground plans, from "temples" which consisted of a few rooms with a simple ground plan. In addition, temples were generally found on high pyramidal substructures while palaces were situated on a low platforms. In the Puuc region, it seems fair to say that Teobert Maler (1895), 1902) was among the first persons to use the word palace to describe the larger (and better preserved) multiroom stone masonry structures he encountered at Puuc sites, particularly those with well preserved stone sculpture on their principal facades. Others picked up on Maler's designations and numerous buildings throughout the Puuc region are commonly called Palace such and such to this day (c.f.
