“…Curtis et al (1996) and Beach (1998a) hypothesized that the present fertility and depth of the soils would not have been much different from the Maya occupation period because no substantial soil erosion previously existed, due to low gradient slopes and clayey soils. Yet, research in 2006 in modern quarries near Chunchucmil and conversations with Dr. Sergey Sedov (UNAM) about his work in northeastern Yucatán spurred us to reinterpret this hypothesis (Dunning and Beach 2010;Cabadas Báez et al 2010). Although San José Chulchaca, the nearest coring site to Chunchucmil, shows no increase in sedimentation during the Maya Classic and slow sedimentation over all (Leyden et al 1996), this site is 25 km north of Chunchucmil and erosion would be highly local in this flat terrain.…”

“…Hence, we hypothesize that the soil cover extended over these areas sometime in the past, and the most likely period of soil erosion was during the period of Maya land-use changes. Indeed, Cabadas Báez et al (2010) have argued this from their findings from a series of quarries in northeastern Yucatán, based on several lines of evidence, including two AMS dates from soils buried in cavities from the Maya Classic. This is not a new idea, because two publications (Conservation Foundation 1954;Robles Ramos 1950) suggested this much earlier (Beach et al 2006).…”

“…A diferencia, en las partes altas de la sierra, los suelos son más delgados y discontinuos, marcando una mayor dinámica. Es posible que estos suelos delgados y arcillosos se transporten hacia las partes bajas, constituyendo el material parental de los Luvisoles, tal y como se ha documentado en otras regiones kársticas con suelos rojos, como en Yucatán (Cabadas et al, 2010).…”

“…1). La península es de origen cárstico y permaneció sumergida durante el Cretácico y Terciario (Cabadas-Báez et al 2010). Esta región se caracteriza por una plataforma continental submarina formada por rocas sedimentarias sobre un basamento cristalino del Paleozoico, el cual sugiere que es una de las estructuras más recientes del territorio mexicano que se originó a partir de un ascenso en el Plioceno-Cuaternario (Lugo-Hubp et al 1992).…”

“…En la península de Yucatán no hay ríos superficiales que aporten material terrígeno al mar, pero se reconocen flujos laminares subterráneos a través de las estructuras cársticas (Perry et al 2009, Cabadas-Báez et al 2010, Solleiro-Rebolledo et al 2011. La zona costera al norte de la península conforma una planicie que comprende desde las localidades de Celestún en el oeste a Cabo Catoche al este, y se caracteriza por ser una franja estrecha de depósitos marinos recientes de origen carbonatado biogénico y un litoral de acumulación (Lugo-Hubp et al 1992.…”
