Esta publicación narra la historia de varias generaciones de una unidad habitacional que habitó una de las áreas más distintivas en la antigua ciudad de Dzibilchaltún. Los residuos de su historia y sus contribuciones a la vida diaria de una capital Maya se encapsularon por varias generaciones en los restos arquitectónicos y artefactos desechados durante la ocupación del contexto habitacional. Los resultados sugieren que los residentes del contexto se identificaban como un grupo de artesanos que posiblemente se afiliaron a una sociedad casa a fin de obtener recursos, acceder bienes exóticos y mejorar su estatus; estrategias que adicionalmente cimentaron su identidad como un grupo de estatus intermedio. This publication includes the history of several generations of a household residing in one of the most distinctive areas of the ancient city of Dzibilchaltún. The remnants of their history and contributions to daily life, in an ancient Maya capital, were captured in their architectural remains and artifacts discarded during their occupation of a residential area. Results suggest that the residents of this space identified themselves as artisans whose membership to a house society aimed both to access resources and increase status. These strategies intended to consolidate both their identity and intermediate status as a group.
