}}Nikolai Grube is a German epigrapher.[1] He was born in Bonn in 1962.[2] Grube entered the University of Hamburg in 1982 and graduated in 1985.[2] His doctoral thesis was published at the same university in 1990.[2] After he received his doctorate, Grube moved to the University of Bonn.[3] Nikolai Grube has been heavily involved in the decipherment of the Maya hieroglyphic script.[4]

Biography

He has served as professor of anthropology and art history at both the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Bonn.[5] At the University of Bonn he has worked in the Seminar for Ethnology.[2] He has worked with several archaeological projects in the Maya region, including those at Caracol in Belize and Yaxha in the Petén Department of Guatemala.[5] He has also occupied a position at the University of Hamburg.[10] He is fluent in the Yucatec language of the modern Maya inhabitants of the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico.[6] Nikolai Grube worked with Linda Schele in presenting hieroglyphic workshops for native Mayan speakers in Mexico and Guatemala.[7]

In the 1990s he visited Naachtun in Petén and recorded the inscriptions on the Maya stelae.[8] He is credited with deciphering the ancient name of the kingdom from the hieroglyphic inscription on Stela 1 at the city.[8] Grube, together with fellow epigrapher Simon Martin, proposed that Maya politics of the Classic Period were dominated by two so-called "superstates" ruled by the rival cities of Tikal and Calakmul.[9]

From 1992 to 1995 Grube received funding from Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft ("German Research Foundation") for a project investigating the oral traditions of the Cruzoob Maya of Mexico.[3] In 2010 Nikolai Grube served as one of the directors of the Interdisciplinary Latin America Center at the University of Bonn.[10] Nikolai Grube is co-editor of the Mexicon journal and is a consultant for the Mexican magazine Arqueología Mexicana ("Mexican Archaeology").[3]

Since 2014 Nikolai Grube is directing the project Text Database and Dictionary of Classic Mayan, which has a projected run-time of fifteen years.[11] It is housed in the Faculty of Arts at the University of Bonn and was established with funding from the

North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences, Humanities and the Arts.[12] The goal of the project is to conduct computer-based studies of all extant Maya hieroglyphic texts from an epigraphic and cultural-historical standpoint, and to produce and publish a database and a comprehensive dictionary of the Classic Mayan language.
