Private museum of Mayan ceramics in Guatemala: Tzakol, Tepeu, and Mamon pottery of El Peten at Uaxactun.

This was our second visit to the Posada Campamento El Chiclero. The owners were very hospitable. We will be adding more text as soon as possible.

This collection has mammiform pottery of preclassic Mamon, some Early Classic Tzakol pottery, and is mostly Tepeu 1 and Tepeu 2 ceramics of
Peten style: bowls, vases, and a few plates. Several of the plates show the "Uaxactun Dancer" (considered to be a representation of the
Maize God).

Here is Nicholas Hellmuth in Posada Campamento El Chiclero (Uaxactun, El Peten)
