The Monuments and Inscriptions of Caracol, Belize

By: Carl P. Beetz,Linton Satterthwaite

The publication of this book finally places the exquisitely carved but little known monuments of Caracol with those of Quirigua, Copan, and Tikal. New breakthroughs in the decipherment of Maya text have enabled the graceful hieroglyphic inscriptions to be translated. University Museum Monograph, 45

Piedras Negras Archaeology, 1931-1939

By: Linton Satterthwaite,Mary Butler,John Alden Mason

Situated on the banks of the Usumacinta River in northwestern Guatemala, Piedras Negras is an important Maya site known for its carved monuments and panels. Between 1931 and 1938 the University Museum conducted research at Piedras Negras, excavating the site core, producing an excellent site map, and documenting architectural developments to an unprecedented standard. Project member Tatiana Proskouriakoff revolutionized Maya historiography with her architectural reconstructions and visionary synthesis of the position and dating of texts and monuments at the site. Innovative excavation methods included test pitting, probing in more modest structures, and the identification of new building types such as sweat baths. More importantly, the Piedras Negras project developed the logistical and methodological criteria that are now standard in the field. Fewer than a dozen copies of the preliminary papers were issued between 1933 and 1936; the later descriptive and interpretive essays of the architecture series have likewise become rare. Piedras Negras Archaeology, 1931-1939 reintroduces to the scholarly community and public these pioneering works, meticulously scanned and edited from the fragile originals, with all the maps, tables, line art, and photographs from the initial reports, and an interpretive essay and index for modern readers.

Tikal Reports, Numbers 1-11

Facsimile Reissue of Original Reports Published 1958-1961

By: Edwin M. Shook,William R. Coe,Linton Slatterthwaite,Robert F. Carr

Any consideration of ancient Mesoamerica, and more particularly the lowland Maya region, must include the great site of Tikal, Guatemala. Excavation and research were conducted at Tikal under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and the government of Guatemala from 1956 through 1969. The painstaking analysis of the results of those years of fieldwork continues, and the results will be published in a projected total of 39 final reports. This volume includes facsimile editions of the first 11 numbers of the final reports, on various topics relevant to the early excavations at Tikal, carried out by the University Museum.
