Description

Explore the material foundations of one of history's most significant cultures. The Technology of Maya Civilization examines how stone tools shaped the ancient Maya world, from the creation of cityscapes to the essential tasks of hunting, cooking, and ritual performance. This academic volume investigates the relationship between ancient civilizations and their natural resources through the lens of lithic artifacts. By studying materials such as chert, obsidian, silicified limestone, and jade, this book provides a deep look into the political economy of the Maya. The research includes specific case studies from archaeological sites across Guatemala, Mexico, Belize, and Honduras. Using anthropological theory, the text moves beyond viewing stone tools as mere objects, instead analyzing their role in the broader social and economic structures of Maya society. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the intersection of archaeology, anthropology, and the history of Central America.
