Each author evaluates what makes identifiable sociocultural units, or "ethnicities," distinctive, investigating ethnicity at a number of Maya sites across different time periods: from the northern reaches of the Yucatan to the Southern Periphery, and from the Classic period to the modern day. The volume challenges the notion of an ethnically homogenous "Maya people" within their region and chronology, and the authors explain how their work contributes to the definition of "ethnicity" for ancient Maya society. 650 0 Social sciences. 650 7 Social Science / Archaeology.|2bisacsh 650 7 Social Science / Anthropology / Cultural.|2bisacsh 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 LeCount, Lisa J.|q(Lisa Jeanne),|d1955-|eauthor. 914 090d1766-2e1b-402f-b322-a18675529280
