项目摘要

Under the direction of Dr. David Freidel, Damien Marken will undertake an extensive and intensive regional study of the settlement surrounding the ruined royal city of El Perú-Waka', northwestern Petén, Guatemala. He will do this by means of the analysis of satellite imagery, full-scale ground survey, and test excavations in residential compounds. The main site and its ambient settlement present an excellent opportunity to investigate the long-term changing relationships between the rulers of a large, regionally strategic, Maya polity and their local sustaining population. Settlement pattern studies play an integral role advancing archaeological conceptions of Classic period (200-900 AD) Maya sociopolitical organization. Processes of polity growth/contraction and settlement distribution are quite variable between sites and sub-regions in the Maya lowlands of southeastern Mexico and Central America. This research will document the range of settlement groups within the El Perú-Waka' polity to identify how families of farmers, tradesmen, craftspeople, the social building blocks of Maya kingdoms, articulate. El Perú-Waka' is located in the southern portion of the Laguna del Tigre Nation Park (PNLDT) in northwestern Guatemala. The PNLDT is the largest national park in the country and contains the largest protected wetlands of Central America. The difficult terrain, dense vegetation, and seasonal climate have left large sections of this area unexplored or lightly surveyed. At present, El Perú-Waka' has received the greatest archaeological attention in the PNLDT. Initial survey and reconnaissance of outlying areas indicate that a wide range of settlement types existed in the vicinity of El Perú-Waka', from isolated mounds to smaller monumental centers, some with architecture suggesting that they, at times, functioned as "outposts" of the El Perú-Waka' polity (Marken 2007b).Data from coeval hieroglyphic texts suggest El Perú-Waka' played an important role in Classic period inter-polity political, military and commercial alliances. Inscriptions indicate that the royal dynasty provided key vassals to ambitious military overlords in the antagonistic relationship between the major regional capitals of Tikal and Calakmul from 500-800 C.E., repeatedly shifting allegiance throughout its history. Furthermore, geographic, ceramic, and epigraphic evidence suggest that El Perú-Waka' was situated along two important overland trade routes, one running north-south, between the site of Calakmul and the Petexbatun region, and one east-west, between Tikal and the Usumacinta River. The research will study the interplay between several processes within the polity. These include the relation between settlement and environment, relations between central and peripheral settlement, and how these combined to affect and alter the natural and social landscape.This archaeological field work provides local people with jobs and the larger El Perú-Waka' project has functioned as an important collaborator in ecological and cultural conservation efforts within the PNLDT. Maintaining a scientific presence within the park facilitates infrastructural and informational support of conservation and government personnel stationed in the region. From a cultural heritage conservation perspective, the proposed research will document the archaeological resources and evidence of their destruction within an important national park and natural reserve in Guatemala. By mapping looters' trenches encountered in survey the extent and intensity of illegal excavation in the PNLDT can be assessed. This information is highly useful to conservation and security personnel within the park. Results will be disseminated locally in the form of improved guidebooks supplied to aspiring tour guides in the community of Paso Caballos, nationally through formal reports and presentations at the annual symposium in Guatemala City, and internationally through articles in peer reviewed journals.
在David Freidel博士的指导下,Damien Marken将对危地马拉佩特海姆西北部被毁的皇家城市El Perú-Waka周围的定居点进行广泛而深入的区域研究。他将通过分析卫星图像、全面地面调查和在居民区进行试验挖掘来做到这一点。主要遗址及其周围的聚落提供了一个极好的机会,可以研究一个大型的、具有区域战略意义的玛雅政体的统治者与当地维持人口之间长期变化的关系。聚落模式研究在推进古典时期(公元200-900年)玛雅社会政治组织的考古概念方面发挥着不可或缺的作用。在墨西哥东南部和中美洲的玛雅低地,不同的遗址和子区域之间,政体的增长/收缩过程和聚落分布变化很大。这项研究将记录在El Perú-Waka政体内的定居群体的范围,以确定农民、商人、手工艺者的家庭,玛雅王国的社会基石,是如何表达的。El Perú-Waka'位于危地马拉西北部的拉古纳德尔蒂格雷国家公园(PNLDT)的南部。PNLDT是该国最大的国家公园,包含中美洲最大的受保护湿地。复杂的地形、茂密的植被和季节性气候使该地区的大部分地区未被勘探或调查较少。目前,El Perú-Waka'在PNLDT中获得了最大的考古关注。对外围地区的初步调查和侦察表明,在El Perú-Waka‘附近存在着各种各样的定居点类型,从孤立的土丘到较小的纪念性中心,其中一些建筑表明它们有时是El Perú-Waka’政体的“前哨”(Marken 2007b)。来自同时期象形文字的数据表明,El Perú-Waka'在古典时期的政治、军事和商业联盟中发挥了重要作用。铭文表明,从公元500年至800年,在蒂卡尔和卡拉克穆尔这两个主要地区首府之间的敌对关系中,王室向雄心勃勃的军事统治者提供了关键的附庸,在其历史上不断改变效忠对象。此外,地理、陶瓷和铭文证据表明,El Perú-Waka’位于两条重要的陆上贸易路线上,一条是南北走向,位于卡拉克穆尔遗址和佩特克巴通地区之间,另一条是东西走向,位于蒂卡尔和乌苏马辛塔河之间。这项研究将研究政体内几个进程之间的相互作用。这包括聚落与环境的关系、中心聚落与外围聚落的关系,以及这些因素如何共同影响和改变自然和社会景观。这项考古实地工作为当地人提供了就业机会,更大的El Perú-Waka项目在PNLDT的生态和文化保护工作中发挥了重要的合作作用。在公园内保持科学的存在,有助于基础设施的建设,并为驻扎在该地区的保护和政府人员提供信息支持。从文化遗产保护的角度来看,拟议的研究将记录危地马拉一个重要的国家公园和自然保护区内的考古资源及其被破坏的证据。通过测绘在调查中遇到的掠夺者的战壕,可以评估PNLDT非法挖掘的程度和强度。这些信息对公园内的保护和安全人员非常有用。结果将在当地以提供给帕索卡巴洛斯社区有抱负的导游的改进指南的形式传播,在全国通过危地马拉市年度专题讨论会的正式报告和介绍,在国际上通过同行评议期刊上的文章传播。
