ABSTRACT The Terminal Classic period (ca. a.d. 830–950/1000) in the Southern Maya Lowlands is known as a time in which investments in public architecture and vaulted masonry buildings began to wane. Masonry constructions have often been noted to be of poorer quality in comparison with previous phases. Moving beyond models of scarcity, this paper examines the aesthetics, meanings, and reorientations of architectural projects at the site of Ucanal, Petén, Guatemala during the Terminal Classic period. We highlight three processes that were central to the new architectural programs at the site: an emphasis on the aesthetics of wood, the reorientation of sacred space in residential contexts, and the fragmentation and reuse of buildings and monuments. Although these materials and processes are often associated with a loss of splendor, we suggest that they were part of an active architectural revisionism, one that remade history by reworking the old and reorienting the new.

危地马拉佩滕乌加纳尔终端经典玛雅遗址的建筑美学，定位和重用

摘要南部玛雅人低地的终端经典时期（大约在830–950 / 1000年）被称为公共建筑和拱形砖石建筑投资开始减少的时期。与以前的阶段相比，人们通常注意到砌体结构的质量较差。超越了稀缺模型，本文考察了终端经典时期Ucanal，Peten，危地马拉的建筑项目的美学，意义和重新定位。我们将重点介绍三个新流程，这些流程是该站点新建筑计划的核心：强调木材的美感，在居住环境中对神圣空间的重新定位以及建筑物和古迹的破碎和再利用。尽管这些材料和工艺通常会导致失去光泽，
