| Sumario: | [EN] The work carried out by the School of American Archaeology under the auspice of the United Fruit Company from 1910 to 1914 in the ancient city of Quiriguá, today world Heritage Site, implied a change of paradigm in architectural heritage preservation in the Maya Area.

The present research delves into the historical, political and economic context when the agreement for this pioneer intervention was made and its repercussion in the history of Pre-Columbian architecture preservation from an exhaustive documental analysis in the institutional archives and the according emerging legislation. |
