Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Figures in the Maya Codices We have not limited ourselves entirely to the Maya manu scripts as we have drawn upon the vast amount of material available in the stone carvings, the stucco figures, and the frescoes found throughout the Maya area. This material has by no means been exhausted in the present paper. In addi tion to the figures from the Maya codices and a comparatively few from other sources in the Maya region, we have introduced for comparison in a number of cases figures from a few of the ancient manuscripts of the N ahuas and the Zapotecs to the north. The calendar of these two peoples is fundamentally the same as that of the Mayas. The year is made up in the same way being composed of eighteen months of twenty days each with five days additional at the end of the year. There is therefore a more or less close connection as regards subject matter in all the pre-columbian codices of Mexico and Central America but the manner of presentation differs among the differ ent peeples of this region.

Book excerpt: In 'Animal Figures in the Maya Codices,' readers are afforded a meticulous exploration into the rich tapestry of Mesoamerican literary tradition, with a keen focus on the depiction and symbolism of animals within Maya literature. The collection stands as a paramount anthology that delves into the diverse literary styles and themes prevalent in Pre-Columbian texts, highlighting the profound relationship between the Maya civilization and their natural environment. This anthology is marked by its comprehensive coverage and the significant intricacies of animal symbolism in Maya culture, drawing on the expansive knowledge and interpretative skills of its editors to illuminate this aspect of Maya literature. The editors, Alfred M. Tozzer and Glover M. Allen, bring to the collection a wealth of expertise in anthropology and zoology respectively, harmonizing their interdisciplinary approaches to decode the complex symbolism embedded in the codices. Their backgrounds are instrumental in shedding light on the intertwined nature of cultural and biological narratives within Maya society, situating the anthology at the confluence of historical, cultural, and literary movements. This collaboration enriches the anthology, broadening our comprehension of ancient Maya thought and the role of animals in their cosmology. This anthology is an exemplary resource for both enthusiasts and scholars of Mesoamerican studies, offering a singular opportunity to immerse in the multifaceted narrative of Maya literary and cultural traditions. Readers are invited to traverse the symbolic and literal landscapes portrayed in the codices, gaining unique insights into the environmental and spiritual ethos of the ancient Maya. 'Animal Figures in the Maya Codices' does not only serve as a testament to the sophisticated symbology of an ancient civilization but also as a bridge connecting the past with contemporary inquiries into the human-animal relationship and the wider natural world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alfred M Tozzer, a very influential voice in the field of Maya during the early half of the twentieth century, proposed that the Maya at Chichen Itza were overcome by the Toltecs three times, which subverted their culture progressively. The first invasion supposedly was of Toltecs, and was led by the mythological figure Kukulcan. The second was an invasion of Toltec-ized Itza (the founding royal family of Chichen Itza) and was led by Kukulcan II. The Third invasion was of Mexican mercenaries from Tabasco. Tozzer argued that the Maya ruled between these three waves of violence and negative culture, and that this creates the dichotomy within Chichen Itza architecture.
