讲座摘要
作为社会群体的成员，人类及其所在环境产生的声音可以被感知和编辑，因而一些声音可以成为交流的手段。在这场讲座中，主讲人将介绍前西班牙时期位于墨西哥和危地马拉出土的各种乐器的考古声学研究。主讲人提出了一种分析和界定各类乐器的声学方法，并将相关的背景信息纳入参考因素。这是为了解释玛雅和阿兹台克人的仪式，以及日常生活中特定时刻如何实现、共享和使用声音。

Abstract
Sounds produced by humans and their environment are perceived and codified based on people’s experiences as members of social groups, resulting in some sounds being used as means of communication. In this lecture, we present an archaeoacoustic study of diverse types of instruments excavated in pre-Hispanic sites located in actual Mexico and Guatemala. We propose a methodology to analyze organological and acoustics for each type of instrument, taking into account their relevant context information; this, in order to provide some interpretations of how sounds could have been materialized, shared and used in specific moments of Mayan and Aztecs ritual and daily life.
