Acknowledgements

We wish to thank FAMSI for funding the work discussed in this report. Other excavation and analysis were supported by the Kenyon-Honduras Program, an off-campus study program that we direct in Honduras for Kenyon College, and an NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates grant that partially funded participants. We thank the students of the 2004 season for their attentive work, as well as our excellent staff–Co-Director Ellen Bell, and Senior Staff Charlie Webber, Leigh Anne Ellison, and Anna Novotny–volunteers, and our archaeometallurgy consultant, Dr. Aaron Shugar. The residents of our Honduran home towns, Pueblo Nuevo and Petoa, were welcoming and helpful, as they have been since the inception of our work in the area during the summer of 1999.  Field workers from both towns as well as other smaller locales in the area did a superb job of excavating and dealing with the peculiarities of the foreigners, oftentimes speaking broken Spanish, in their midst. As in previous seasons, IHAH provided supervision and assistance of various sorts; we thank in particular the regional supervisor Juan Alberto (Beto) Duron, and the field technician assigned to us, David Aguila. Any errors of omission or commission in this report are solely due to the authors' slips of the mind.
