Zooarchaeological and Stable Isotope Analysis of Deer at Isla Cilvituk, Campeche, Mexico (2018)
The purpose of my thesis is to analyze the deer from the zooarchaeological assemblage recovered from the archaeological site of Isla Cilvituk, Campeche, Mexico, to determine if environmental depression affected Isla Cilvituk. Isla Cilvituk is a Maya archaeological site located in a lacustrine region on the Yucatán peninsula. Environmental depression is defined as the destruction of ecosystems by the mismanagement of resources and/or climate shifts. I focus on deforestation and animal...
Zooarchaeological and Taphonomic Analysis of Fauna Remains from Isla Cilvituk, Campeche, Mexico (2004)
Zooarchaeological, taphonomic, and behavioral analyses offered insight into human-animal relationships at the Maya archaeological site, Isla Cilvituk (AD 900-1525), located in southwestern Campeche, Mexico. Taxonomic abundance, spatial analyses, and reconstruction of animal life histories provided evidence of taxonomic abundance; species are not statistically associated with elite and non-elite structure types, butchering and cut marks are evidence, differential disposal is not evident in...
