Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. 483-509 pages with figures, maps, tables and cited references. Quarto (11" x 8 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Current Anthropology Volume 37 Number 3 complete issue. First edition. Traditional studies of public architecture in Mesoamerica view it as passive reflection o…f social complexity and ideology, an "inert container" for social action. In this study the author attempts to move beyond this static perspective by exploring the construction, dedication and use of ball courts as "lived space" in which social values and practices inhabit and activate geographical space. The dedication of ballcourts though the interment and foundation caches and burials transformed these structures into scared and social places, defining them as suitable stages for ritual action. With archaeological data from recent excavations in west-central Honduras and elsewhere in Mesoamerica, the author examined the use of ballcourts through a functional analysis of excavated materials. Evidence from these excavations and from ethnohistorical and ethnographic accounts suggest that interfactional ballgame rituals involved the competitive sponsorship of ballgames and feasts, providing strategic settings for the negation of power relations. These rituals centered on the redistribution of food and wealth and the symbolic renewal of agricultural fertility. The author argues that the ballcourt, as a place which powerful supernatural associations, served as a stage for rituals in which political conflict was mapped onto and resolved through cosmological drama. Condition: Edge wear, corners bumped, rubbed and creased else very good.
