Northeastern Yucatán Project:
Archaeological Survey in the Northeastern Corner of Yucatán, México

Acknowledgements

The idea of undertaking the project "Archaeological Survey in the Northeastern Corner of Yucatán" was first considered in 1999. The original idea of exploring eastern Yucatán was conceived by the scholars Anthony P. Andrews, Fernando Robles Castellanos and this author, with the purpose of attempting to cover through systematic archaeological surveys, the entire northern coast of the Yucatán Peninsula, as in so doing, a full vision of both the type of pre-hispanic settlements that existed along the littoral and the nearest ones towards the hinterland, would be achieved.

I want to thank the archaeologists Rubén Maldonado Cárdenas and Tomás Gallareta Negrón, from the Centro INAH Yucatán, for their support throughout this project.

The first stage of the research was possible thanks to the support and funds granted by the Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies, Inc., (FAMSI).
