About this product

Product Information

In the first millennium AD, the Classic Maya created courtly societies in and around the Yucatan Peninsula that have left some of the most striking intellectual and aesthetic achievements of the ancient world, including large settlements like Tikal, Copan, and Palenque. This book is the first in-depth synthesis of the Classic Maya. It is richly informed by new decipherment of hieroglyphs, decades of intensive excavation and survey. Structured by categories of person in society, it reports on kings, queens, nobles, gods, and ancestors, as well as the many millions of farmers and other figures who lived in societies predicated on sacred kingship and varying political programs. The Classic Maya presents a tandem model of societies bound by moral covenants and convulsed by unavoidable tensions between groups, affected by demographic trends and changing environments. It will serve as the basic source for all readers interested in the civilisation of the Maya.

Extremely fast shipping! I got it within 3-4 days of purchase (closer to 3 due to how late in the day I ordered it). The item was in extremely great condition and was a great value! I can tell that it was taken great care of. The packaging was also excellent and was double-packed. That is important for games! I highly recommend this seller, and I will likely be back in the future for more retro games.

EXCELLENT SELLER! I bought two cardigans from this seller and they were both better than the described condition, and were shipped across the country in 2 business days. Well packaged and cleanly folded— I highly recommend! Buy with confidence!
