Abstract

The study of ceramic materials is an important part of archaeological survey and excavation, in that their treatment and classification have a significant impact on the interpretation of sites associated with them. This paper presents a study of the pottery of the Classic Maya site of Machaquila (Petén, Guatemala) as a set of evidence in its own right but, above all, in relation to the overall ceramic sequence for the Southeast Petén. This region consists of more than 300 sites, among them Machaquila, that have been investigated systematically by the Atlas Arqueológico de Guatemala during its first 25 years of existence (1987-2011).
