The Hidden World of the Maritime Maya: Lost Landscapes Along the North Coast of Quintana Roo, Mexico

Part of the When the Land Meets the Sea book series (ACUA,volume 2)

Abstract

While the Postclassic period is most often associated with Maya seafaring, in fact, the strengthening of maritime economies and the establishment of circum-peninsular trade routes occurred during the preceding Terminal Classic period (ad 850–1100). It was during this time when the major city of Chichén Itzá demonstrated an increased reliance on maritime commerce to maintain and extend its control over much of the Yucatán Peninsula. Coastal settlements, however, have a deeper history in the Maya area, with occupations dating back to at least the Middle Preclassic period (800–400 bc), and the Costa Escondida Project, a long-term, interdisciplinary research effort, is focusing on the dynamic relationship between the Maya and their coastal landscape over the past 3,000 years.
