This 1926 edition of The City of the Sacred Well by T.A. Willard documents the archaeological excavations and discoveries of Edward Herbert Thompson at the ancient Mayan city of Chichen Itza. The narrative details Thompson's life work, specifically his focus on the sacred cenote or well, from which he recovered numerous artifacts and skeletal remains. The text provides a contemporary perspective on Mayan history, architecture, and religious practices as interpreted during the early 20th century. This British edition was published by William Heinemann Ltd. in London and features a black and white frontispiece and numerous photographic plates throughout the text. This copy features a cut signature of the subject, T.A. Willard, affixed to the front free endpaper. Condition: The book is in Good condition. The green cloth boards show rubbing to the extremities, particularly at the spine ends and corners. The gilt on the spine has dulled but remains legible. The binding is secure. Internally, the front free endpaper has a cut signature of Edward Herbert Thompson pasted to the center. There is a gentle vertical crease which relaxes over the first 40 pages. The pages show moderate, uniform toning and some light foxing to the prelims, but the photographic plates and text remain clear.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Limited Edition. 10+[1 ad] pages with fold out facsimile of the codex at the back. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original wrappers. Limited to 250 copies. The Codex Peresianus, or Codex Mexicanus, no. ii better known as the Codex Perez, a rare Mayan volume and reproduced here. It was discovered in 1859 Leon de Rosny, among a mass of old papers in the national library of France. It consists of eleven leaves, twenty-two pages, each 9 inces long and 5 1/4 inches wide. The writing is very much defaced, but was evidently of a highly artistic character, probably the most so of any manuscript known. Its origin is a complete mystery. The papers in which it was wrapped bore the name "Perez" in a Spanish hand of the seventeenth century, and hence the name "Peresianus" was given it. By order of the French minister of public instruction, ten photographic copies of this Codex, without reduction, were prepared for the use of scholars. None of them was placed on sale. There have been published but a few reproductions of the Codex Perez. The present reproduction is an absolutely exact photographic facsimile of the original. The only alterations that have been made are that the margins, entirely blank, have be reduced in size, and certain figures, clear in the original but too faded to reproduce photographically, have been strengthened with dotted lines in order that they be not lost in the reproduction. The figures are exactly the size of the original, and the format of the original has been followed identically, even to the accordion-pleat fold which permits the book to be read across in sequence, as was the Mayan custom. The original is on a fibrous paper made from the leaves of the maguey plant and coated with a whitish, durable plaster. Condition: Some pencil underlining, previous owner's name to front wrapper else a very good copy.
