Royal Courts of the Ancient Maya: Volume I: History, Comparison, and Synthesis

Description

The idea for this book took shape in 1996, when we organized a srnail session on this topic for the annual meeting of the herican hthropological Association, Most particjpants would agree that through the effnrts of the speakers, the AAA session was productive and well-received.It semed logical to undertake a more ambitious effort in a forum that would allow greater intellectuaf and chrmologird scope. Accordingly,we devised a sympo"iurn titled Royal Courts of the Ancient Maya, held at: W e University in November 1998, with the plan of publishing an edited volume afterward. At the outset, we felt that ftale would be an ideal venue, It was, after all, the plaice where Michaet Coe, George
I(ub:lt.r, and Flopd Lounsbury had created a remarkable program of study and learning that continues to influence current research m ancient Maya art, writhg, md thought. Sadly, there was another reasm to hold the confe~neeat Yale. Floyd, a beloved figure to all who hekv him and a personal inspiration for Houston, passed. away h late spring 3.948,after years of physicai frailty that somehow failed to hinder his incisive and prccise mind. We dedicate the confere~zcca nd this two-volurne book to Fhyd's memory and to his unipe combination of lPcindness and exacting
scholarship.
