On the northern edge of the empire, 350 miles from Mexico City, sprung up... In the sixteenth century, silver mined by native peoples became New Spain's most important export.

As a result, Maya states are defined according to the specific political structures that characterized classic period lowland Maya society. The Origins of Maya States is the first study in over 30 years to examine the origins and development of these states specifically during the preceding preclassic period, ca. 1000 B.C.E. to 250...
