Descendant Community Projects

The Maya Corpus Program is delighted to collaborate with descendant communities researchers from Copan, Honduras—Frontera Corozal, Mexico—and Belmopan, Belize. Aligned with the Peabody Museum's mission of ethical stewardship and shared authority, several projects have been carried out in 2023 and 2024.
