Descrição: A sketch of the linguistic, geographic and temporal diversification of the Mayan language-family is offered, and correlations with archaeological discoveries are suggested in many cases. Linguistic contacts of Mayan with non-Mayan languages and cultures are discussed, and a number of archaeological-linguistic correlations are suggested. Reference is made to some common linguistic misconceptions often voiced by Meso-American archaeologists. Some of the more important claims (oversimplified) made here are that Classic Mayans were Cholans, Olmecs and Izapans were Mixe-Zoqueans, and that there were no Nahuas in Meso-America before the fall of Teotihuacán.
