Summary:

The lengthy occupation span of the Maya site of Lamanai Belize, from the Preclassic (ca. 1600 BCE) through the Postclassic and into the Spanish colonial period (1500 - 1700 CE), coupled with extensive archaeological excavations, has resulted in the discovery of numerous pottery artifacts. This book includes a Foreword by David Pendergast, and presents the entire collection of technically illustrated pottery - over 940 illustrations of more than 800 vessels and pottery objects. A summary of the results of archaeological research over the past five decades introduces the site. An overview of Maya pottery forms and ceramic illustration conventions serve as the foundation for the visual and contextual data presented with the illustrations.
