Abstract
AbstractRecent archaeological settlement surveys around Lakes Yaxha and Sacnab in the El Peten district of Guatemala have provided new data on the nature of Middle Preclassic (1000-300 B.C.) Maya populations in the Central Peten. Locations of apparent domestic and civic activities have been determined and the settlement configuration and architectural remains identified for the period suggest certain institutional characteristics of the earliest inhabitants of the lake basins. The settlement data are discussed in the context of available information and speculation on initial occupation of the Central Peten.
