Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 64 pages with frontispiece, photographs, drawings, illustrations and index. Royal octavo. 9 1/2" x 6 1/2") bound in original publisher's wrappers.

Stephen Houston is an anthropologist, archaeologist, and epigrapher whose insightful interpretations of Mayan iconography and hieroglyphic inscriptions shed new light on the intellectual culture of Mesoamerican society and address fundamental questions about the role of writing in ancient civilizations.
