The ancient Maya shaped their world with stone tools. Lithic
artifacts helped create the cityscape and were central to warfare
and hunting, craft activities, cooking, and ritual performance.
'The Technology of Maya Civilization' examines Maya lithic
artefacts made of chert, obsidian, silicified limestone, and jade
to explore the relationship between ancient civilizations and
natural resources. The volume presents case studies of
archaeological sites in Guatemala, Mexico, Belize, and Honduras.
The analysis draws on innovative anthropological theory to argue
that stone artefacts were not merely cultural products but tools
that reproduced, modified, and created the fabric of society.
