Nose to the Grindstone: A Discussion of the Ancient Maya Ground Stone Industry of the MPR
Full title: Nose to the Grindstone: A Discussion of the Ancient Maya Ground Stone Industry of the Mountain Pine Ridge
Synopsis: All people need to eat, but what they do, how they do it, and how they make it are determined by their culture. For past Maya people, corn, ground by a mano on a metate, was the foundation of their diets. Such grinding tools were made from a variety of types of rocks, but geoarchaeological studies have shown that those made from the Mountain Pine Ridge granites were preferred throughout central and northern Belize and into eastern Guatemala. Though such studies have been able to identify the general source for the preferred material, questions about how and from w...

Просмотров 52Год назад

His grave on a desert island must have been destroyed by one of the many hurricanes that sweep the Caribbean, but his brass memorial plate, presumably commissioned by his widow, and relying on uncertain information, survived, ending up in a Canadian antique shop, before being sold at auction in Eng...

    Dear Lauren: congratulations on your project! Very interesting comparison of the three documentation methods. BTW: John Justeson and Terry Kaufman used a similar technique to "trace" the epi-Olmec glyphs on La Mojarra Stela 1, but they used transparency film sheets for overhead projectors. I assisted them in checking the accuracy of their tracings. It worked very well. Also well done with the RTI approach: in case you were not aware, it was used by Michael Carrasco and Joshua Englehardt with the Cascajal Block, with great results. I became a convert to RTI after seeing their results. BTW2: Michael and Joshua prepared a drawing of the inscription on the Cascajal Block using their RTI documentation, as did I. So you can compare the two drawings based on the same RTI model. Comparisons of methods like these are very valuable, and was very glad to see it!

    I disagree with her assertions that Kriol and Garifuna phenotypes are indistinguishable. The majority of Kriols can be distinguished from the majority of Garifunas. It's just a fact.

    Oh lord. Whoever organised this should consider how St Martin de Porres is not the shining representation of inclusion in the Catholic Church in Latin America but the church's antiBl4ckness. Imagine comparing that saint to Evan X Hyde?! phew ruclips.net/video/-AARpbi5bKk/видео.htmlsi=1kiIh2h10Hyis8aD

    I watched this film with my daughter and enjoyed it very much. You can tell the entire crew worked hard as the characters in the story came to life. The music added that extra rhythm which captured your attention while diving into the story wanting to know more. In addition it made me reminisce of my childhood days hearing this particular folklore and being afraid of Ta Ta Duende. However, this cleared up all that fear the way it was beautifully film. A must watch, with a positive message for parents and children!
