Descriere

Until now, no single-volume introduction has existed to act as a guide to the labyrinthine symbolic world of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica. The authors draw on their research in the fast-changing field of Maya studies and the latest anthropological discoveries to produce an authoritative workdocumenting nearly 300 entriesthat should serve as a standard reference for students, scholars, and travelers. 260 illustrations.
