The work
was conducted during the period from November 1978 to August 1979.
As specified in the contract, the project area is contained within
the boundaries of the Fire Island National Seashore which is limited to a stretch of barrier beach approximately thirty-two miles long between Fire Island Inlet on the west and Moriches Inlet on the
east (Fig. 1).
The aim of the study is to provide infonnation about the history of the project area, to indicate the archeological, architectural
and historic resources in the Fire Island National Seashore and to make reconmendations, when applicable, for specific intensive cultural resource studies. The inventory of known cultural resources and
zones of potential archeological resources can be consulted by the National Park Service in the evaluation of the impact of proposed construction projects or land modification activities.

In addition, the extremely fertile volcanic soils of the Pacific Coast allowed for dense concentrations of indigenous settlement in pre-Hispanic times. The prehistory of these areas is rich, dynamic, and complex: extensive areas were sometimes integrated into the Greater Nicoya subarea, and the arrival of Mesoamerican groups, beginning around A.O. 800 (Chorotega groups, followed by Nahuaspeaking Pipil and Nicarao), certainly caused displacements and disruptions as well as introducing new cultural institutions. This archaeological region comprises two major ecological regions in Nicaragua: the Central Highlands and the Pacific Region. It does not include Lake Nicaragua or the southern sector of Lake Managua, the i~lands ofZapatera and Ometepe, and the Isthmus of Rivas, which are discussed in the article on Greater Nicoya (see "Nicoya, Greater, and Guanacaste Region''). Pre-Hispanic Nicaragua provided a vast array of wild resources that were used, and sometimes domesticated, by its early inhabitants. Coastal, riverine, lacustrine, and upland habitats all occur in the Pacific and north central regions. Agriculture, combined with fishing, hunting, and gathering when possible, was the main subsistence activity. Maize (Zea mays) as well as root crops, beans, calabashes, and peppers were cultivated. Important fruit trees included a number of Spondias species, mammees (Mammea americana), zapote (Calocarpum sapota), nance {Byrsonima crassifolia), papaya {Carica papaya), guava (Psidium guajava), guanabana {Annona muricata), and avocado {Persea americana). Economically and/or ceremonially importa!Jt crops included cotton, cacao, tobacco, and coca as well as copal incense, a variety of dye plants, the balsam tree (Myroxylon balsamum}, the wild fig (Ficus spp.) and the kapok tree or ceiba {Ceiba pentandra).

En este articulo se resumen las caracteristicas mas generales de cada periodo de la secuencia arqueol6gica de Gran Nicoya, con base en un esquema cronol6gico revisado y una nueva nomenclatura. Se estiman los limites geograficos de las desarrollos culturales ocurridos en cada periodo. Otras categorias de datos discutidas son: subsistencia, patrones de asentamiento, organizaci6n sociodemografica, contactos foraneos , ceramica y litica. Se incluyen, ademas, recomendaciones e hip6tesis que sirvan de referencia hacia futuros investigaciones en Gran Nicoya .

The Terminal Classic in the Maya Lowlands: Collapse, Transition, and Transformation, ed. Arthur Demarest, Prudence Rice and Don Rice, 2004

et al. 1995; May Hau et al. 1990). At its peak during the Classic period, the territory under the direct control of the k’uhul kan ajawob, as the kings of the Calakmul polity were known, extended over an area of approximately 13,000 square kilometers (Figure 9.1; Domínguez Carrasco et al. 1997; Folan 1988; Marcus 1973, 1976). In fact, the kingdom of Calakmul was at least as large in area and population as any other Late Classic state of the central Maya lowlands, including Tikal (Fletcher and Gann 1992; Folan 1988).

Archaeological investigations have suggested a complex socioeconomic integration apparent in the heterogeneity of the size, shape, and quality of architecture while demonstrating a clear demarcation between commoner and elite compounds in addition to a complex system of raised roads (sacbeob). Results of the 1974-1976 mapping efforts at Coba revealed a generalized concentric settlement pattern with elite compounds concentrated at the core. In their analysis of the settlement patterns at Tikal, Guatemala, Arnold and Ford challenged this concentric model. Their analysis of labor investment in structures within the 9 km2 core area of Tikal suggested, in contrast to Coba, a scattered rather than a concentric pattern of high-status architecture. Using a geographic information system (GIS), we tested our concentric model hypothesis for Coba by applying Arnold and Ford's work investment parameters. Our results confirmed the presence of a concentric pattern of high-status architecture at Coba closest to the core that differed from Arnold and Ford's findings of a scattered pattern in Tikal. These unique
and discrete findings suggest that all major cities in the Maya area may not possess identical settlement patterns. To support our findings indicating urbanism, we also make a detailed analysis of the Coba and Calakmul demographics focusing on the Late Classic period.

The relationships suggest agreement between the residence pattern of Cobá and Diego de Landa's 16th-century class-oriented description of Maya towns during preconquest times.

The intriguing primary documents we will analyze-along with crucial secondary studies by our visiting scholars and others-take multiple forms: written alphabetic texts in Spanish or Nahuatl; ideographic calendars and books of divination; and pictorial histories in the form of scrolls, codices, (linens) and maps. The written source materials will be accessible to participants in English Institute Blackboard site, and the crucial pictorial manuscripts and maps will be accessible online, as well as in printed facsimiles. Every teacher/scholar dreams of the opportunity to immerse herself in the full array of primary source materials, whether manuscripts, photographs, artifacts, or rare print items. This project will provide Institute Summer Scholars an unprecedented opportunity to Depending on Public Health Guidelines related to COVID-19 , plans for a residential offering are subject to change. explore a unique archive in a collegial and supportive environment. Funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and sponsored by Adelphi University, this three-week Institute will enable our Summer Scholar participants to explore the burgeoning new perspectives and theoretical approaches to 16th century Mexican textual, pictorial, and ethnohistorical studies with scholars who are in the vanguard of the development of new critical approaches. Institute seminars and discussions, among participants themselves, and with our renowned visiting scholars, will provide a compelling format for our Summer Scholars to engage directly with these new textual resources and critical paradigms.
