KULCHA Symposium Presenter, Prof. Elizabeth Graham: Belize's Spanish and British colonial heritage as seen through Tipu and Lamanai

I will be drawing from my archaeological investigations at Tipu and Lamanai, and additionally from my husband David Pendergast's excavations at Lamanai, to connect both the Maya and colonial pasts to Belize's present. Both were centuries-old Maya communities, and both were sites of early Christian or "primitive" churches founded by the Franciscans in the early 16th century.
