The Growth of Piedras Negras, Guatemala

Acknowledgments

The Proyecto Piedras Negras was directed by Stephen Houston and Héctor Escobedo with a permit secured from the Instituto de Antropología e Historia de Guatemala, and the division of Monumentos Prehispánicos. Additionally, I wish to thank the Defensores de la Naturaleza and the Consejo Nacional de Áreas Protegidas (CONAP), who administer the Parque Nacional Sierra de Lacandón reserve in which Piedras Negras lies, for all their efforts in protecting the cultural and natural treasures found therein. A final thanks goes to the Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies, Inc. (FAMSI), whose ever-generous support has funded prior research at Piedras Negras and this study.
