Title: Urban Life in the Ancient Maya City of Palenque, Chiapas Mexico
Speaker: Dr. Lisa M. Johnson
Abstract: This presentation discusses ongoing archaeological research at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Palenque in Mexico. The city made famous with the discovery of royal tombs and extensive art and monuments has been the subject of intense interest for centuries. However, less is known about the lives of the non-royal Maya of Palenque. Dr. Johnson and her colleagues consider how repeated social practices were part of daily life for the inhabitants of a Palenque neighborhood during its heyday, from AD 450 – 800. Much remains to be learned about the characteristics of Palenque's neighborhoods, their organization, and their internal diversity (as a reflection of an urban community). Recent investigations in select residential clusters have revealed citywide practices indicative of a shared urban identity and diversity within individual households revealing a heterogeneous urban landscape.
