Oxford Encyclopedia of Mesoamerican 3 vols
Carrasco

This reference aims to act as a definitive guide to the civilizations of ancient Mexico and Central America. Exploring 700 years of history - before, during, and after the European conquest - and with 500 articles by experts from many fields, the encyclopedia synthesizes a wealth of knowledge about the archaeology, history, language, literature, religion, and social life of Aztec, Olmec, Maya and other cultures. The articles incorporate the recent explosion of new scholarship, from new archaeological finds to new translations of classic texts. The scope of the encyclopedia spans the earliest settlements to the tenacious legacy of pre-Conquest culture in the colonial and postcolonial life of Mesoamerica. It features a selection of maps, line drawings and photographs, and a network of cross-references, blind entries, bibliographies and an index.
