The researchers from the National Institute of Anthropology and History of Mexico (INAH) have identified more than 1,300 remains of freshwater crabs found in a ritual deposit at the Palenque Palace, a famous Maya archaeological site in the state of Chiapas in the southern part of the country.

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "This palace is the largest architectural complex in the ancient city, which has been inhabited for centuries, reaching its peak between 500 AD and 700 AD, when its influence extended to the surrounding region, according to UNESCO. This archaeological site contains some of the best-preserved architecture, sculptures, and carvings from the ancient Maya civilization."

Discovery of Rare Crabs in Maya Ritual Site

The following 'Bahasa' text translated to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The elite rulers and priests in ancient Palenque used to enjoy the endemic freshwater crabs, which they consumed as a delicious food in private ceremonies commemorating special events, such as specific milestones in palace construction. These crabs were considered symbolic markers of regeneration. Therefore, they were consumed in ceremonies marking the inauguration or completion of specific spaces and constructions within the palace complex at the city's summit."

Researcher INAH Carlos Varela Scherrer, who is involved in the investigation that uncovered crab remains, said that several modern Maya communities in northern Chiapas prepare large amounts of food on certain festive nights. After that, they pour the leftover food into a dug hole as an offering to the gods, as was done in pre-Hispanic times.

"For the ancient Maya, it was important to hold ritual feasts where food was shared between participants and the gods. Therefore, the recovery of crabs in Palenque opens up a new interpretation of the utilization of fauna and its preparation."

Researchers have discovered a prominent crab due to the fragility of its remains, which are rarely found in the archaeological context of the Maya Lowlands. Two ritual deposits were found during the recent study. As part of the latter, researchers found an anthropomorphic plaster head possibly representing an ancient ruler of Palenque, a ceramic vessel depicting a Maya deity, and a shrimp-shaped pipe, alongside crab remains.
