Documentation of Floor Assemblages from Aguateca, Guatemala

Conclusions

The Aguateca Archaeological Project started with initial support from the FAMSI, which led to larger operations in the following seasons. The FAMSI grant supported the final stage of the project for the thorough documentation of unique floor assemblages of complete and reconstructible objects. Drawings and photographs produced through the FAMSI-supported study are an important step toward a deeply contextualized understanding of Maya households. The significance of the unique Aguateca assemblages is not limited to the specific goal of the project focused on the study of households. Their images distributed through internet and the Aguateca site report will be a significant source of information for archaeologists who examine ceramics and other artifacts, art, and technologies.
