Ongoing Research in the Three Rivers Area of the Southern Maya Lowlands
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 82nd Annual Meeting, Vancouver, BC (2017)
Since being defined more than two decades ago, the Three Rivers Region of the southern Maya Lowlands has been intensively studied by a number of researchers. The area includes the Department of Peten, Guatemala and the adjoining northwestern portion of Belize, and is within the Rio Azul, Rio Bravo and Booth's rivers which converge to form the Rio Hondo. The Three Rivers Region includes the well-known sites of La Milpa, Blue Creek and Rio Azul. This poster symposium will present recent work from the region.
