Correlation of Maya Lithic and Glyphic Data

ABSTRACT

Celts are temporally and spatially ubiquitous throughout the Maya Lowlands. Because of recent technological analyses and abundant depictions In various media such as ancient books, carvings and pottery, the uses and functions of these implements are partially understood. Here an attempt is made to bridge the gap between lithic and glyphic analysis, including iconography, to present a fuller picture of the ancient meaning of the lithic hallmark of the Lowland Maya.
