"In this major revision of his classic text on the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica, Richard E. W. Adams adds new information available from archaeological fieldwork in the region from the 1990s through 2004. He also evaluates recent theories regarding the remarkable prehistoric cultures of a region that today encompasses Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, and parts of Honduras and El Salvador."--BOOK JACKET.
