دانلود کتاب A sacrificial mass burial at Miramar, Chiapas, Mexico

While working at Mirador during the 1965 season (Agrinier 1970), I made a short in¬ vestigation of the nearby site of Miramar, ex¬ ploring the surface and making five test pits. My intention was to make a preliminary eval¬ uation of the cultural and chronological posi¬ tion of Miramar with relation to Mirador. The locations for the test pits were chosen for their potential ceramic stratigraphy, with an intention to avoid other cultural features, such as masonry walls, caches, and burials. However, in the case of Pit 2, my intentions were diverted; the mass burial I encountered there occupied me for most of the short sea¬ son, from the middle of May to the first days of June, 1965. Two other short explorations I made in 1973 and 1974 added a few additional details.
