Guided Question #10 of 11 - Lacandon Maya Cultural
Survival
<
Instructions
In chapter 11 of HUMANS UNMASKED, you learned about some of the ways in which aboriginal peoples have resisted culture
change and globalization. Please take a moment to review some of the ethnographic and historical information on the Lacandon
Maya- an indigenous group from Mexico who has actively strived to avoid culture change. In this assignment, I want you to
describe TWO ways in which the Lacandon Maya avoided culture change. In addition, I want you to describe TWO ways in which
recent culture contact has affected their culture. You should be prepared to write approximately one paragraph (i.e., 4 or more
sentences). In that paragraph, you need to discuss both of the topics described above. You may write the paragraph online using the
"Submit" button or you may write it out in a word-processing program and submit the file (pdf, rtf,, docx, or doc files are best) using
the "Add a File" button.
