The Maya Indians of Southern Yucatan and Northern British Honduras
In the following pages is a description of the mounds opened during the last few years in that part of the Maya area now constituting British Honduras, the southern part of Yucatan, and the eastern border of Guatemala (pl. 7). For descriptive purposes these mounds may be divided, according to their probable uses, into six main groups: 1. Sepulchral Mounds.This group includes mounds which, originally constructed for other purposes, were afterwards used as burial sites. 2. Refuse Mounds.This group includes kitchen middens, shell heaps, deposits of waste material remaining after the manufacture of lime, and heaps of stones gathered from the surface of the ground. 3. Foundation Mounds.As the buildings themselves invariably stood on the summits of flat-topped mounds, such mounds, capped with the dbris of the earlier structures, formed the bases of later ones. 4. Defensive Mounds.Some of these mounds were crescent-shaped; others were in the form of a horseshoe. 5. Lookout Mounds.These mounds extend in chains, at intervals of 6 to 12 miles, along the coast and up some of the rivers; they are lofty, steep-sided, and usually form the nuclei of groups of other mounds. As a rule they contain neither human remains nor artifacts, though in one or two of them superficial interments seem to have been made at a comparatively late date. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
