À propos de cet audio

The Maya has long been established as the best, most accessible introduction to the New World's greatest ancient civilization. Coe and Houston update this classic by distilling the latest scholarship for the general listener and student.

This new edition incorporates the most recent archaeological and epigraphic research, which continues to proceed at a fast pace. Among the finest new discoveries are spectacular stucco sculptures at El Zotz and Holmul, which reveal surprising aspects of Maya royalty and the founding of dynasties. Dramatic refinements in our understanding of the pace of developments of the Maya civilization have led scholars to perceive a pattern of rapid bursts of building and political formation. Other finds include the discovery of the earliest known occupant of the region, the Hoyo Negro girl, recovered from an underwater cavern in the Yucatan peninsula, along with new evidence for the first architecture at Ceibal.

Once again I get a real appreciation for Chinese and European history where written records allow us to actually know people like Confucius, Caesar, and Alexander. Here we are left with pottery shards, and epigraphic information that only paints a very broad picture with very little detail. Super boring, and hard to retain what they did say. Good for scholars maybe, but not the interested lay person.

Lots of facts, not much story
