From temple to tomb, she explains how and why the Maya made their greatest works. New discoveries at Copán, Tikal, and Palenque--to name but a few--are included, and the author draws on recent decipherments in Maya writing to provide fresh interpretations of Maya sculpture and ceramics. Chapters on Maya architecture and the materials of Maya art set the stage for discussions of the sculpture of different time periods and regions, the famous murals at Bonampak, the dramatic new findings at Cacaxtla, and the painted Maya ceramics of the first millennium A.D. The author has organized the material in new ways, considering the nature of the human form in Maya art, for example, and the role of the hand-held object.--From publisher description. 000292855 650_0 $$aMaya art. 000292855 650_0 $$aMaya architecture. 000292855 651_0 $$aMexico$$xAntiquities. 000292855 651_0 $$aCentral America$$xAntiquities. 000292855 85200 $$bgen$$hF1435.3.A7$$iM55$$i1999 000292855 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:292855$$pGLOBAL_SET 000292855 980__ $$aBIB 000292855 980__ $$aBOOK 000292855 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
