Animal Figures in the Maya Codices is a book written by Alfred M. Tozzer that explores the fascinating world of ancient Mayan art and mythology. The book examines the various animal figures that appear in the codices, which were ancient Mayan texts that were written on bark paper and used for religious and historical purposes. Tozzer provides a detailed analysis of the different animals depicted in the codices, including jaguars, snakes, birds, and monkeys, and explores their symbolic significance in Mayan culture. The book also delves into the techniques used by Mayan artists to create these intricate animal figures, including the use of vibrant colors and intricate patterns. Animal Figures in the Maya Codices is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient Mayan art and culture, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and mythology of this ancient civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
