Description
Summary:In this work, studies of the Maya culture of the Northern Lowlands are combined across time and space, from the pre-Hispanic era to the present. It contains studies of archaeology, social anthropology, ethnohistory, calendars, astronomy, mural painting and pre-Hispanic codices. Research is addressed regarding the interrelationships between the Maya area and Teotihuacán, archaeological studies carried out in northwest Yucatán, focusing on architecture, settlement patterns, artifacts and mural painting, in T'hó (Mérida), Dzibilchaltún, Chunchucmil, Sihó and Mayapán. In the Puuc region, the search for the origin and antiquity of the Maya civilization stands out, along with studies conducted in Yaxuná, Chichén Itzá, Kulubá, Xuenkal and Ekbalam. It contains essays on calendrical systems, codices, herbal medicine and symbolic territoriality. Without a doubt, this is an important contribution to Maya studies.
