Alive with visual renderings of kings, warriors, gods, ceremonial symbols, sacred animals, and everyday objects, this dazzling collection of 366 color and black-and-white designs, expertly selected from original centuries-old codices, communicates a bygone world of awe-inspiring vision. Rich with mystical flavor, and painstakingly reproduced in a multimedia format, this superb collection will enchant artists, craftspeople, and history enthusiasts alike.
