In recent years, the indigenous population in Mexico increased their access to higher education. From an analytical perspective on social inequalities, this article approaches the educational trajectories of Maya or Mayan origin youths who have accessed at the university in Yucatan. It shows how a restricted access to the structure of opportunities based on social origin and a precarious school environment translates into the perpetuation of educational disadvantageous conditions up to the university level. However, it is also identified that in these environments, the interaction with social agents is a key factor in favoring a change of direction towards more favorable educational contexts. It also identifies a privileged sector of young people from families who have experienced processes of social mobility, that makes their educational trajectories a more stable path with less obstacles.

This study investigates the shifting meanings and practices inscribed on the Main Plaza at the ancient Maya city of Tenam Puente. Plazas are fundamental features of ancient Mesoamerican cities that were important sites for civic activities such as mass spectacles, ceremonies, private rituals, feasting. More recently, certain plazas have also been documented as permanent or periodic marketplaces. New radiocarbon dates and stratigraphic test excavations provide evidence for several important transformations in the built landscape of Tenam Puente’s Main Plaza, including renovations to the site’s principal ballcourt, a large filling and resurfacing event, and a significant addition to the plaza’s volume for the purpose of building a semi-enclosed marketplace plaza. These results provide insight into the evolving nature of public space at the site, from a focus on private rituals and dynastic rule, to an emphasis on mass spectacle, commercial activity, and civic engagement.

The archaeological group La Chincúa-Plan de la Mesita is part of a complex of sites grouped around Cerro Bernal, a hill that dominates the narrowest intermountain section of the coastal route from Chiapas toward Guatemala across the Soconusco. La Chincúa’s settlement begins during the Late Preclassic, incorporates Teotihuacan influence during the Classic, and continues on as a religious and habitation center during the Postclassic. It is during this last period that La Chincúa’s neighboring site, Plan de la Mesita, becomes an elite burial ground; the textile manufacturing objects offering here analyzed comes from this context.
考古小组La Chincúa-Plan de La Mesita是Cerro Bernal周围建筑群的一部分，Cerro Bernal是一座山，占据了从恰帕斯州到危地马拉的沿海路线上最狭窄的山间路段，穿过Soconusco。La Chincúa的定居开始于前古典时期晚期，在古典时期受到特奥蒂瓦坎人的影响，并在后古典时期继续作为宗教和居住中心。正是在这最后一段时期，La Chincúa的邻近地点Plan de La Mesita成为了一个精英墓地;本文所分析的纺织制造对象就是来自于这一背景。

The aim of this paper is to study the rhetorical structure of the Ritual of the Bacabs, a colonial document of great importance in the context of Yucatec Maya literature. After a philological analysis, I will focus especially on the study of textual rhetoric and the marks of orality of this ritual document. I will also study the textual symbolism and networks of paronomasias, used to link diseases, body parts, animals and medicinal plants in the same healing action. The analysis of its rhetorical organization and the textual mechanisms of meaning production allows us to understand the functions of ritual language and the presence of a codified system of discourse. The basis of my theoretical approach is the convergence between rhetoric and semiotic study of discourse.

Pre-Hispanic Maya architecture had different features that highlighted its visual impact. Among them were the battlements, like those registered in the Puuc region, but also present at the Chenes area, Edzna, or Chichen Itza. Another relevant top ending was the roofcomb, whose origins belong to the first centuries of our era and are associated with the Peten architecture. These elements were decorated with stucco images and evolved for many centuries through the Postclassic period. Considering their composition, they can be classified in four different formats, whose iconography included rulers, deities and symbolic motives.

This article deals with the institutional and economic development of the cajas de comunidad in the pueblos de indios (Indian towns) in Quetzaltenango, in the Audiencia of Guatemala, at the end of colonial era. It begins with an analysis of the main reforms that affected the community treasuries between the mid eighteenth century and the crisis of the monarchy. The sources of income and the outlays of the Indian towns are later discussed. The relevance of the study is its analysis of economic demands imposed by individuals from outside the Quetzaltenango jurisdiction, and the urgent needs of the monarchy, and, finally, the general view that it provides of the community funds in Quetzaltenango during three decades. Thus, the article underlines the importance of these funds in colonial Indian towns, the capitalization of the Spanish economy and the support provided to the monarchy by the Indian population in the early nineteenth century.

The chemical residue analysis is a powerful method to identify specific activities took place on the plaster floor of a building which was gradually abandoned without leaving artifacts. We analyzed four structures of the Guzmán Group, a plazuela group of the El Palmar archaeological site, which was a residential compound of non-royal elites who held the title of lakam. The results together with other material evidence suggest that lakamob were engaged in a wide variety of activities that include food storage, consumption and serving, as well as feasting, meeting, and ritual.
