Cerámica sin Fronteras: Defining Cultural Phenomena at the Intersection of Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua

This session brings together archaeologists from three Central American nations, the United States, and Canada to present new data and review the evidence for regional and interregional interaction in the southeast Mesoamerican periphery and northern Central America. Themes include defining a new ceramic sphere or a cultural sub-region in the southern Mesoamerican periphery, possibly around the Gulf of Chorotega (Fonseca); interregional interactions as seen in ceramics and other artifact classes; ethnic groups, migration, and boundaries in this cultural mosaic.
