Description
Examines the 2,000-year history of the ancient farming community of Chan in Belize, explaining why the average person should matter to archaeologists studying larger societal patterns. Cynthia Robin argues that the impact of what is commonly perceived as habitual or quotidian can be substantial, and a study of a polity without regard to the citizenry is woefully incomplete.
