The El Pilar Project has been conducting research at El Pilar, Belize and Guatemala since 1993, and was founded on a base of survey work that goes back to 1983. This unusual archaeological program recognizes the present environment as a part of the ancient Maya past. Our mission is the preservation and conservation of endangered resources through local and international education. Addressing tensions between culture and nature, we use the past as a reference to build a responsible future. Weaving together traditional knowledge and practice with scientific inquiry and interpretation, we promote a deeper awareness of heritage through local partnership.

The University of California Santa Barbara's (UCSB) Maya Forest GIS is an essential tool to organize and use the numerous resources involved in our studies, and provide reliable datasets for the project.

埃尔皮拉尔项目 (El Pilar Project) 自1993年起便在伯利兹与危地马拉境内的埃尔皮拉尔开展考古研究，其研究根基可追溯至1983年的考古调查工作。这项别具一格的考古项目将当下的生态环境视作古玛雅文明过往历史的组成部分。我们的使命是通过本土与国际教育活动，保护濒危的文化遗产资源。针对文化与自然之间的张力矛盾，我们以过往历史为参照，携手构建负责任的未来。我们将传统知识与实践同科学探究及阐释相结合，通过本土合作伙伴关系，提升公众对文化遗产的深度认知。

加利福尼亚大学圣巴巴拉分校 (University of California Santa Barbara, UCSB) 的玛雅森林地理信息系统 (Maya Forest GIS) 是整合并利用本研究涉及的各类资源、为项目提供可靠数据集的核心工具。
