Overview
Late Classic interaction between Copan and western El Salvador has been archaeologically recognized in prestige items, monumental influences, and the common use of Copador ceramics. An inscribed flask excavated in 1952 in the main pyramid at Tazumal, El Salvador provides historical evidence for these ties. The flask is dedicated as the property of K'ahk' Uti' Witz' K'awiil (Copan Ruler 12), a long-lived seventh-century ruler who presided over the expansion of Copan's influence far outside of the Copan valley. The flask is the only hieroglyphic text from El Salvador naming a recognizable individual or that can be dated to an absolute calendrical span, one of only a few miniature Classic Maya vessels tagged with an individual's name, and the only one naming an ajaw (lord). The vessel's text, iconography, and context brings the political relationship between Copan and western El Salvador into sharper focus.
La interacción durante el período clásico tardío entre Copan y El Salvador occidental ha sido reconocido arqueológicamente por medio de artículos de prestigio, influencias en monumentos y el uso común del tipo de cerámica polícroma Copador. Un frasco grabadoexcavado en 1952 por Stanley Boggs, en la pirámide principal de Tazumal, El Salvador, ofrece evidencias históricas de estos lazos. Frascos de este tipo fueron usados en varios casos para contener tabaco y muchos se produjeron en el área de Copan. El frasco de Tazumal se encontró en un entierro acompañado de fragmentos de jade y pirita y luego estuvo guardado en el Museo Nacional de Antropología después de la excavación, muchos años antes de los avances históricos en el deciframiento de la escritura maya. El frasco es único en que tiene una Secuencia Primaria Estándar que se dedica como propiedad de K'ahk' Uti' Witz' K'awiil (Rey 12 de Copan), un gobernante de larga vida del siglo VII que presidió sobre la expansión de Copan y la dispersión de su influencia lejos del valle de Copán. El frasco es el único texto jeroglífico de El Salvador que nombra un individuo reconocible o que se puede fechar a un período calendárico absoluto, uno de los pocos vasos miniaturas mayas del período clásico fichados con el nombre de un individuo y el único que nombra a un ajaw (señor). La iconografía muestra temas de tributo y el intercambio de regalos entre patrones y clientes políticos. La combinación del texto, la iconografía y el contexto del frasco de Tazumal sugiere que Copan tenía una relación política formal con el oeste de El Salvador durante el reino de Rey 12. En esta capacidad, el frasco es similar en uso a varias vasijas cilíndricas de las tierras bajas mayas, marcando relaciones entre tributarios o aliados en la época clásica.
