Book Miscellaneous Investigations in Central Tikal  Great Temples III  IV  V  and VI

Download or read book Miscellaneous Investigations in Central Tikal Great Temples III IV V and VI written by H. Stanley Loten and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Maya center of Tikal, in Guatemala, is famous for its well-preserved architecture. This book presents detailed descriptions of four of the six Great Temples that dominate Tikal's city center. Whereas Great Temples I and II were published in 1990 in Tikal Report 14, the four structures presented here are Great Temples III, IV, V, and VI. All but Great Temple V represent Late Classic construction and can be associated with known rulers. It is tempting to think of these structures as funerary monuments, but this is only a supposition. Their relationship with rulers may have been much more complex. This report is the primary record of these important buildings in Tikal's urban landscape. It provides clear, precise, and usable architectural analyses for Mayanists, archaeologists, art historians, architectural historians, urbanists, and those interested in construction techniques and in the uses of Maya buildings.
