Krátky popis
The definitive history of the Maya, fully updated with the latest
archaeological studies. The Maya has long been established as the
best, most readable introduction to the ancient Maya on the market
today. This classic book has been updated by distilling the latest
scholarship for the general reader and student.This tenth edition
incorporates the most recent archaeological and epigraphic
findings, which continue to proceed at a fast pace, along with
full-colour illustrations. The new material includes evidence of
the earliest human occupants of the Maya region and the beginnings
of agriculture and settled life, analysis from lidar on swampy
areas, such as Usumacinta, that show enormous rectangle earthworks,
including Aguada Fenix, dating from 1050 to 750 BC, and recent
advances in decoding Maya writing and imagery. It also expands on
information on the roles of women, courtiers and outsiders, covers
novel research about Maya cities, including research into water
quality, marketplaces, fortifications and integrated road systems,
and features coverage of more recent Maya history, including the
displacement and mistreatment of the Maya people, along with
growing affirmations of their cultural identity and
rights.Highlighting the vitality of current scholarship about this
brilliant culture, The Maya remains the gold standard introductory
book on the subject.
