Description: "Eleven papers present the preliminary findings of a project designed to explore ancient Maya subsistence, settlement patterns, and political organization in northeastern Yucatán. Investigations focused on settlement survey and documentation of monumental architecture, especially at the large center of Naranjal. Results suggest that occupation was most intense during the terminal formative and early classic periods, with a decline during the late and terminal classic and renewed activity in the late postclassic"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
