Pierre Colas

Pierre Robert Colas (January 13, 1976 – August 26, 2008) was a German anthropologist, archaeologist and epigrapher. As a Mayanist scholar who investigated the pre-Columbian Maya civilization of ancient Mesoamerica, Colas was well known for his contributions to the study of the Maya writing system, and his archaeological work on cave sites used by the Maya. His analysis of onomastics—personal naming practices and titles of rank—in Classic-era Maya inscriptions was the first major publication of its kind. Colas also conducted ethnographic studies and surveys among contemporary Maya communities living in Belize. In Europe, he had close involvement with the organisation of academic conferences and workshops on the Maya, as a workshop tutor, presenter of original papers, and editor of several conference proceedings and reports.〔Sachse (2008)〕
Since 2006 Colas held a position as assistant professor in the Anthropology Department of the College of Arts and Science at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee.〔Howard (2008)〕
On the evening of August 26, 2008 Dr. Colas was shot dead in his Nashville home. He was 32 years old.〔See reports in Howard (2008), Peebles (2008), and Stults (2008).〕
==Early life and studies==
Colas was born 1976 in London, England. As the son of a German diplomat,〔Seiler (2008)〕 he lived in several countries as a child, including a period spent in Mexico where he acquired his abiding interest and fascination with Maya civilization and culture.〔Seiler (2008)〕 Colas and his family later resettled in Hamburg, Germany where he completed his secondary education and ''abitur'' exams in 1995. He then enrolled at the University of Hamburg, graduating in 1999 with an M.A. in anthropology and Mesoamericanist studies.〔Sachse (2008)〕
Colas pursued doctorate studies in anthropology at Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn (University of Bonn), where his major studies focussed on the Classic-era Maya civilization and its writing system, the Maya script. He also undertook minor course studies in Egyptology and Latin American history at the University of Cologne. His doctoral dissertation was on the topic of Classical Maya personal names, rulership titles and glyphs,〔Entitled: "ドイツ語:Sinn und Bedeutung klassischer Maya-Personennamen: typologische Analyse von Anthroponymphrasen in den Hieroglypheninschriften der klassischen Maya-Kultur als Beitrag zur allgemeinen Onomastik" (in English, ''Sense and meaning of Classic Maya personal names: a typological analysis of anthroponymic phrases in the hieroglyphic inscriptions of the Classic Maya culture, as a contribution to general onomastic studies'').〕 under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Nikolai Grube.〔Professor Grube was to describe Colas as "...ドイツ語:einer der bedeutendsten jungen Maya-Forscher" (''one of the most important young Maya researchers''). Quote as reproduced in Seiler (2008).〕 This was the first major survey and analysis on the subject, and was published in book form by German academic publishers Verlag Anton Saurwein.〔Issued as volume 15 in the monographic series of titles in Mesoamerican studies, ''Acta Mesoamericana''.〕 Colas successfully defended his dissertation and was awarded a PhD in Anthropology the same year, in 2004.〔Sachse (2008)〕
