| description | This article analyzes the “restoration” of a treasure of incalculable value, taken from Chichen Itzá’s Sacred Cenote with the help of a primitive dredge installed along its edge by Edward H. Thompson, then the U.S. consul in Progreso, and financed by Harvard University’s Peabody Museum and private collectors from the Boston area. This “restoration” began in 1904 and continued up until 1907, with periodic resumptions up until 1909, the year in which Thompson resigned from his consular position, which marked the weakening of the network of complicity that he had been weaving since 1875 to allow him to illegally export hundreds of Maya pieces to the University of Cambridge. The article concludes in 1914, when the violence of the Mexican Revolution unintentionally put an end to the looting of Chichén Itzá. |

Thompson Cenote Archeology 20th Century Chichen Itzá H. Thompson cenote arqueología siglo XX This article analyzes the “restoration” of a treasure of incalculable value, taken from Chichen Itzá’s Sacred Cenote with the help of a primitive dredge installed along its edge by Edward H. Thompson, then the U.S. consul in Progreso, and financed by Harvard University’s Peabody Museum and private collectors from the Boston area. This “restoration” began in 1904 and continued up until 1907, with periodic resumptions up until 1909, the year in which Thompson resigned from his consular position, which marked the weakening of the network of complicity that he had been weaving since 1875 to allow him to illegally export hundreds of Maya pieces to the University of Cambridge. The article concludes in 1914, when the violence of the Mexican Revolution unintentionally put an end to the looting of Chichén Itzá. Este artículo acompaña el proceso de “rescate” de un tesoro de valor incalculable, retirado del fondo del Cenote Sagrado de Chichen Itzá, con ayuda de una primitiva draga instalada en sus orillas por el entonces cónsul de los Estados Unidos de América del Norte en Progreso, Edward H. Thompson, financiada por fondos del Peabody Museum de Harvard University y recursos privados de coleccionistas del área de Boston. El “rescate” inició en 1904 y se prolongó hasta 1907, con reiteraciones episódicas hasta 1909, año de la dimisión de Thompson de su cargo consular y del inicio del desmadejamiento de las redes de complicidad que se habían venido tejiendo desde 1875 para permitir la exportación ilegal de centenas de piezas “mayas” hacia la universidad de Cambridge. El texto termina en 1914, cuando la violencia revolucionaria detiene accidentalmente la sangría.
