SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Dear Friends,

I would like to invite you all to join the listserv "Aztlan" as it joins its new host at FAMSI -- The Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies, Inc.
Aztlan has been around for well over a decade, and has recently been moved to a new home at FAMSI. It is one of the oldest and most respected listservs for Mesoamerican Prehistory.

Recent conversations on Aztlan cover such topics as: -The Maya Collapse, breaking news reports on Ancient Americas Archaeology -The origins of Maya writing (discussing the new discovery of murals at the site of San Bartolo), the uses of yokes and other ball court artifacts in the Gulf Coast ball games, wheels in Mesoamerica, Pre-Clovis Sites, Caral, Announcements of Ancient America lectures, conferences and exhibits and discussions on all topics of the Ancient Americas from the Arctic to Tierra del Fuego.

The moderators filter out ad hominems and science fiction archaeology.

If you are interested, please visit:
http://www.famsi.org/mailman/listinfo/aztlan

Aztlan typically has an activity level of approximately 3-5 emails per day. This may be too many emails for the casual reader. In this case, I still suggest subscribing, but click the bubble for "daily digest" which will deliver all Aztlan messages in a single daily email (you will therefore only receive one email per day, containing all of the day's messages).
