| Authors: | Vera, Tiesler Andrea, Cucina |
| Keywords: | Human Sacrifice and Ritual Body |
| Issue Date: | 2007 |
| Publisher: | Springer |
| Description: | This volume grew specifically out of the results of a symposium on human sacrifice and postsacrificial body treatments in ancient Maya society that united scholars working in different fields of Maya research on the central question related to the scope and dynamics of ancient Maya sacrificial behavior. Held during the Annual Meeting of the Society for American Archaeology in 2005, the symposium promised to provide new information and novel perspectives on human sacrifice and ritual body processing, centering on the recognition of taphonomic patterns. It addressed explicitly the discussions surrounding cache-burial identifications, along with the potential meanings and procedures that make up body part interments. |
