What was the lived daily experience in the pre-contact Maya world? How did aspects of material culture-- such as architecture, food, musical instruments, tools, and clothing-- frame Maya society, and how were these elements also framed by it? How are perceptions of the ancient Maya marshaled in today’s politics and policies? In this course, we will engage with the world of the pre- and post-contact Maya, through scholarship that explores the material culture of daily life.
