Stephen D. Houston examines the cultural and political significance of young men within Classic Maya civilization, synthesizing archaeological evidence with epigraphic analysis. By investigating the intersection of artistic representation and textual records, the study illuminates how youth served as a pivotal stage in the life cycles of elites, shaping the social and historical narratives of the ancient Maya world.
