Abstract
International audience"South, west and northeast of the monumental center of Naachtun lies an extensive residential zone. Three field seasons dedicated to the mapping of this zone led to a better understanding of its limits, components, special conformations and environmental inscriptions. The chronological dimension and occupational dynamic can be reconstructed through the study of the numerous lootings in the area and a program of stratigraphic diggings, in order to establish an occupation sequence to be linked with the one of the center, particularly of the Group B. After detailing the methods and techniques used for the study of the resi-dential zone of Naachtun, the first results about settlement pattern (including the use of the soil) will be presented in this paper and a first scheme of its development during the Classic period will be proposed."
