These charcoal concentrations, interpreted here as ancient illumination sites, provide strong evidence that the Chan Hol cave was dry and accessible during that time interval. Humans used the cave for at least 1200 years during the early and middle Holocene, before access was successively interrupted by global sea level rise and flooding of the cave system. Our data thus narrow the gap between an early settlement in the Tulum area reaching from the late Pleistocene (similar to 13 000 a) to middle Holocene (e.g. 7177 C-14 a BP), and the Maya Formative period at approximately 3000 a bp. Yet, no evidence has been presented to date for human settlement during the similar to 4000-year interval between 7000 and 3000 a. This is remarkable as settlement in other areas of south-eastern Mexico (e.g. Chiapas, Tabasco) and in Guatemala was apparently continuous.

Además de las repercusiones territoriales y medioambientales, la práctica turística deja su huella en la cultura, la sociodemografía y la identidad de los destinos turísticos. Este trabajo aborda la relación entre el turismo y el multilingüismo, comparando el litoral del estado de Quintana Roo, en la península de Yucatán, México, con la isla de Mallorca. Nuestro objetivo principal es identificar tanto los puntos en común como las diferencias entre las dos regiones en el marco de los aspectos sociolingüísticos mencionados anteriormente. Esto nos permitirá distinguir las dinámicas lingüísticas regionales relacionadas con el turismo, por un lado, de aquellas dinámicas que operan a nivel global o transatlántico, por el otro. De esta manera, esperamos contribuir a un entendimiento más profundo de las dinámicas sociolingüísticas características de cada uno de los dos contextos y establecer las bases para futuros trabajos de tipo empírico. N2 - Tourism is a territorial phenomenon characterized by linguistic and cultural interactions that have significant impacts on both the host societies and, to a lesser extent, on the societies of origin of tourists. Beyond its territorial and environmental consequences, tourism profoundly influences the culture, sociodemographics, and identity of tourist destinations. This paper explores the interplay between tourism and multilingualism, drawing a comparison between the coastline of Quintana Roo in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico, and the island of Mallorca. Our main goal is to identify similarities and differences between these two regions, focusing on the sociolinguistic aspects mentioned earlier. This analysis enables us to distinguish regional language dynamics associated with tourism from those operating at a global or transatlantic level. By doing so, we aim to contribute to a deeper understanding of the distinctive sociolinguistic dynamics in each of these contexts and establish a foundation for future empirical research.
