The earliest evidence of this practice can be placed in the Middle Formative (I mil. BC), but this tradition persisted among the native population of Mexico until the 20th century. Conch shell trumpets were excavated ...

The principle aim of the paper is to present the evidence behind our identification of the phonetic sign we, and
to trace some key implications of that decipherment. Additionally, however, it is our apologia—that is, our explanation and justification of this strangely delayed discovery, now only entering the scene some six decades after Yuri Knorozov (1952) initiated the phonetic decipherment of Maya writing. ...

In studying Classic Maya mythology scholars meet two main problems. First, we don’t dispose with long narrative texts that are known from other early civilizations. Second, Maya mythology is still (re)constructed on the basis of Popol Vuh. In our paper we argue that the use of typology of mythological motives and themes can be very ...

According to the hieroglyphic sources, the eighteen months separating February ad 799 from August of the following year were particularly eventful, especially in the greater Naranjo region of the eastern central lowlands. Until recently the events that transpired were only known from the lengthy text on the back of Stela 12 at Naranjo. Despite its relative length the text has suffered a fair degree of ...

The history of the war conflicts between Early Classic Maya polities in the epigraphic records starts with the “Entrada” of the teotihuacanos in AD 378. Previous interpretations of this event as a war between Tikal and Uaxactun proposed by Peter Mathews is outdated. However, the revision of the Early Classic texts from Uaxactun (Stelae 18 ...
