During June and July 2022, Tomás Gallareta Cervera and Brett A. Houk directed the fifth season of Alphawood-funded research at the site of Chan Chich, Belize. Our 2022 excavations under Operation CC-21 (Op CC-21) focused on Norman’s Temple, an elite residential group located southwest of the site’s main center. We specifically targeted Structures C-2 and C-3, located on the north and south sides of the small courtyard at the center of the Norman’s Temple complex. Our two objectives were to recover more graffiti and burial information from Structure C-2 and extend our knowledge of the abandonment-related above-floor artifact deposit at the base of Structure C-3 (Booher 2016; Houk 2016, 2020). This chapter describes the 2022 excavations; we have not yet completed the analysis of the artifacts collected in 2022.
