archaeology, hieroglyphics, epigraphy, and iconography. Index and
description of all the several hundred pages for www.maya-archaeology.org.

civilizations such as the Olmec, and Teotihuacan), primarily of
Guatemala but also adjacent Belize, Honduras, and Mexico. In addition,
the FLAAR web sites seek to provide information about how advances
in digital imaging technology can help in their research and especially
in desktop publishing as a means of publishing research results.
