Mexican archaeology

 

Roger Blench

 

 

The primary arrangement is by archaeological cultures and then by sites. So clicking on Maya will jump to the Maya opening page, which will access both Maya sites and museum presentations. Where a culture also has modern representatives, as in the case of the Maya, there is also a link to an ethnographic page. Sometimes cultures are primarily in the United States or cross borders into Guatemala or Belize. These are cross-listed under the pages for those countries.

 

N.B. Labelling and provenance in museum collections can be imprecise. I would be glad to hear of any apparent errors that have crept in.
