About This Book
A scholarly compilation reproduces an early ecclesiastical account of Yucatecan customs, rites, and inscriptions, presenting Spanish text with French translation alongside the calendrical signs and a proposed hieroglyphic alphabet for the Maya. The volume includes comparative essays and historical documents, an abridged grammar and French–Maya vocabulary, and commentary that examines parallels between American monuments and Old World antiquities, while supplying ethnographic, calendrical, and epigraphic material for further study.
