Ancient cities were complex social, political, and economic
entities, but they also suffered from inequality, poor sanitation,
and disease-often more than rural areas. In The Ancient Urban Maya,
Scott Hutson examines ancient Maya cities and argues that, despite
the hazards of urban life, these places continued to lure people
for many centuries. With built forms that welcomed crowds,
neighborhoods that offered domestic comforts, marketplaces that
facilitated the exchange of goods and ideas, and the opportunities
to expand social networks and capital, the Maya used their cities
in familiar ways.
