Abstract

Even though lithics in the Maya region have traditionally been relegated to appendices and tool-type lists, much has been done to move beyond this descriptive approach in the last decade. In this article we highlight general themes of lithic studies in the Maya region since 2011, including economic production and exchange, the role of lithics in ritual practice, and the use of previously understudied raw materials and lithic forms, such as ground stone. Employing a temporal scope that encompasses the Maya and their preceramic predecessors, we explore gendered patterns of research within lithic studies from a feminist perspective and discuss the impacts that gender disparities have on academic thought.

玛雅地区的石器:探索过去十年研究中的性别趋势
尽管玛雅地区的石器研究历来被归入附录和工具类型列表,但在过去十年中,已经有许多工作超越了这种描述性方法。在本文中,我们将重点介绍 2011 年以来玛雅地区石器研究的一般主题,包括经济生产和交换、石器在仪式实践中的作用,以及以前未被充分研究的原材料和石器形式(如磨制石器)的使用。我们以玛雅及其前身陶器为时间范围,从女性主义的角度探讨了石器研究中的性别研究模式,并讨论了性别差异对学术思想的影响。
