About this book

"With this catalog of facsimiles of codices preserved at Catholic University, Eichstätt, 12 experts in precolumbian ethnohistory, cultural geography, and indigenous languages provide introduction to precolumbian and early colonial indigenous 'communications technology.' Editors emphasize significance of nonglossographic systems, hieroglyphs, pictographs, and Andean notation systems such as tocapu and quipu. Well-written articles are documented and include bibliographies"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
