This new edition of Living with the Ancestors contains an entirely new introduction that synthesizes scholarship on ancestralizing practices that has emerged since the 1995 publication of the first edition, which was heralded in Ethnohistory as 'a gem' by Robert M. Carmack. This new edition also contains an updated bibliography.
How did Maya farmers, artisans, and rulers make a living in a tropical forest environment? Patricia McAnany tackles this question and presents the first comprehensive view of ancestral Maya economic practice. This book situates Maya economies within contemporary social, political, and economic theories of social practice.
McAnany sheds light on the varied ways today's Maya communities relate to-and are often distanced from-their deep past, historicizes the role of archaeologists and nations in pre-Columbian heritage, and highlights how grass-roots heritage programs can bridge scientific investigation and local community interests.
