New Discovery, Maya site of Kabah in the Yucatan

Just received this exciting Archaeology Update from Mike Ruggeri – See Mike Ruggeri’s Maya Archaeology News and Links!

“INAH archaeologists have found a space at the Maya site of Kabah in the Yucatan where food for the elite was prepared. The material dates from 750-950 CE. The area is 40 by 14. They have found 30,000 pieces of pottery, plates, vases, animal remains, metates, hammers, blades, knives and scrapers. Chemical studies have confirmed theses finds. They are determining what foods were prepared there. The kitchen is near the royal family quarters. In 1991, they found a similar large kitchen at Labna.”
