Isla Cerritos se localiza en la costa norte de Yucatán (México) y fue ocupado durante casi dos siglos. Los temas que se estudian en la arqueología de Isla Cerritos incluyen: aspectos relacionados con la temprana ocupación de esa isla y su abandono; el estudio de sus patrones de asentamiento o arreglo espacial interno; el análisis de la comunidad costera antes y después de ser un puerto de una poderosa capital regional; su papel como un puerto de Chichén Itzá que fue una capital regional in Yucatán durante los siglos X y XI; entender la relación de Isla Cerritos con otras comunidades costeras para demostrar que esta isla formó parte de complejos procesos sociales, económicos y políticos que ocurrieron a lo largo de la costa y el interior de las tierras bajas mayas. El detallado análisis arqueológico realizado en Isla Cerritos demuestra que este tipo de estudios pueden contribuir al estudio arqueológico de islas en el contexto mundial sin importar su cronología.

Isla Cerritos is located on the northern coast of Yucatán, Mexico, and was occupied for nearly two centuries. Topics studied in the archaeology of this coastal site include: aspects related to the early occupation and abandonment of the island; its settlement patterns; analysis of the coastal community before and after becoming a port for a powerful regional capital; its role as a port of Chichén Itzá, a regional capital in Yucatán during the tenth and eleventh centuries; understanding Isla Cerritos' relationship with other coastal communities, demonstrating that this island was part of complex social, economic, and political processes that occurred along the coast and inland of the Maya lowlands. The detailed archaeological analysis conducted on Isla Cerritos demonstrates that this type of study can contribute to the archaeological study of islands in a global context, regardless of their chronology.

Reviews for Isla Cerritos: La arqueología de un puerto de Chichén Itzá

'The worldwide perspective is innovative and is a significant contribution, as it will prompt others to look beyond individual sites.' Professor Heather McKillop, Louisiana State University 'Desde luego este libro es de interés para los estudiosos de Mesoamérica en general y el área Maya en particular, al introducir como marco teórico las temáticas actuales en el estudio de las islas en cualquier parte del mundo que desarrolle investigación arqueológica insular.' Dra. Sara Ladrón de Guevara, Universidad Veracruzana
