This book was released on 2007-05-07 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph reports the results of the Quiriguá Project Site Periphery Program, five seasons (1975-1979) of archaeological survey and excavation in the 96 km2 immediately adjoining the classic Maya site of Quiriguá. Ashmore identifies and helps us understand where and how the people of Quiriguá lived. She presents detailed material evidence in two data catalogues, for the floodplain settlement adjoining Quiriguá and for sites in the wider periphery. The work situates Quiriguá settlement firmly in a regional context, benefiting from the extraordinary abundance of information amassed in southeastern Mesoamerica since 1979. It sheds new light on the political, economic, and social dynamics of the region including the sometimes-fractious interactions between Quiriguá, its overlords at Copan, and people elsewhere in the Lower Motagua Valley and beyond.

Download or read book The Archaeology of Complex Societies in Southeastern Pacific Coastal Guatemala written by Francisco Estrada Belli and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 1999 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the results of research conducted from 1995 to 1997 in an area of Guatemala previously overlooked by archaeologists and whose obscure prehistory had been the topic of many speculative culture-historical syntheses. The significance of its results lies in the finding of several important pre-Hispanic settlements and a web of trade interactions linking their populations with neighboring areas of the Maya region. The primary objective is to provide a chronological framework for cultural processes that go from the development of sedentary life to the emergence and decline of complex social organization. The work also discusses the internal composition and dynamics of hierarchical social organization as reflected in settlement patterns and artifact distributions. The archaeological findings include survey and excavation data from early villages and hierarchically organized polities centered at densely populated settlements, as well as the locating and documenting of several 'lost' historical places of the Spanish Conquest.
