TALADOIRE, Eric. The economic basis of a maya political entity. The case of Toniná. Estud. cult. maya [online]. 2016, vol.48, pp.11-37. ISSN 0185-2574.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.ecm.2016.48.753.

Because its marginal location, in a valley rich in natural resources, the Toniná polity had a special place among Maya cities. In spite of the abundant natural resources of the Ocosingo valley, Toniná lacks easy access to several luxury products, which might have influenced its bellicose attitude towards many rival entities, and its search of the prestigious resources needed by the local dynasty.

Palavras-chave : Toniná; natural resources; political economy; exchange.
