Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the origins of the Maya house in the Yucatan, challenging previous assumptions about its pre-Hispanic or colonial roots. It posits that the introduction of the sisal hammock in the late 17th century was pivotal in transforming Maya living spaces. As the traditional stick beds were replaced by hammocks, significant adaptations to the house structure occurred, leading to a design that harmonized with the environment and cultural practices. This enduring architectural style has since become a universal archetype, reflecting the resilience and innovation of the Maya people.
