(EDT), ISBN 193174579X, ISBN-13 9781931745796, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK A specialist in the social consequences of sedentism and agriculture in ancient Mesoamerica, Lesure (anthropology, U. of California-Los Angeles) focuses here on El Varal, a special-purpose estuary site of the later Early Formative, 1 BC, in the larger context of settlement in the Soconusco, narrow strip of the Pacific coast of Mexico and Guatemala. With some help from colleagues, he reports on archaeological investigations at El Varal; analyzes finds and the issue of intra-site variability; and details inter-site differences in settlement, subsistence, and community. Specific topics include assemblage variation in Early Formative Soconusco, macrobotanical remains from El Varal compared to inland sites, ceramic artifacts, subsistence in the estuary, and the organization of salt production.
