The chemical residue analysis is a powerful method to identify specific activities took place on the plaster floor of a building which was gradually abandoned without leaving artifacts. We analyzed four structures of the Guzmán Group, a plazuela group of the El Palmar archaeological site, which was a residential compound of non-royal elites who held the title of lakam. The results together with other material evidence suggest that lakamob were engaged in a wide variety of activities that include food storage, consumption and serving, as well as feasting, meeting, and ritual.
