Abstract
The thirty third volume of Lambda Alpha Journal presents three papers with topics in archaeology, cultural anthropology, and museums. Volume 33 opens with an article by Daniel Proctor and provides an analysis of the presence of “dwarves” or little people in Mayan vessels according to Mayan mythology. Immediately following, Ingrid Mendoza gives us her own perspective on the kivas of the ancient puebloan people of the United States Southwest. The next article is by Lindsay Waros addressing the relationship between museums and anthropology. Reviews of two books in the area of biological anthropology are included.
