description: To better understand the role of globalization in culture change, this thesis
investigates how the growing global economy of the twentieth century has affected
the Maya community of Silvituc, Campeche, Mexico, and how those influences are
reflected in the archaeological record. By applying both a macro-scale and microscale
approach this study demonstrates how wage labor and surrounding land
developments, such as the introduction of a highway, have been incorporated into a
subsistence-based society. This will contribute to recognizing and understanding the
effects of world systems pressures in both the past and the present.
