- Summary:
- The Mayan civilization, from its origins to its decline, used almost exclusively lithic technology to achieve its extraordinary development. Of stone, whether it was carved or polished, made most of their tools and weapons, as well as decorative elements and for rituals. Despite this, studies on Mayan lithic are relatively scarce. That's why this book seeks to contribute to filling this void. The chapters that make up this work address lithic from various angles and approaches, they also offer a view of both the daily life and the ritual life of the ancient mavas through the study of their stone artifacts.
