About this title

Synopsis

The goal of the Corpus of Maya Hieroglyphic Inscriptions is to document in photographs and detailed line drawings all known Maya inscriptions and their associated figurative art. When complete, the Corpus will have published the inscriptions from over 200 sites and 2,000 monuments. The series has been instrumental in the remarkable success of the ongoing process of deciphering Maya writing, making available hundreds of texts to epigraphers working around the world.

This fascicle includes addenda to introductory text for the site Tonina; appendix with sources of sculpture and their codes; index to volumes 1 through 6; and one oversized map in pocket.
