The Itza' Maya of the Petén in Guatemala preside over a unique rainforest biosphere in danger of disappearing. Equally at risk is their own botanical knowledge, from taxonomy to medicinal uses. This volume contains a history of the Petén Itza' Maya, explanation of Itza' taxonomy, tables and keys to plant usage, common names in English, Spanish, and several indigenous languages, and much more.
