Providing an in-depth examination of central works, this book guides readers through the most iconic palaces, pyramids, sculptures, and paintings. From the Olmec colossal head 5 recovered from San Lorenzo to the Aztec Calendar Stone found in Mexico City's Zo?calo in 1790, this book reveals the complexity and innovation behind the art and architecture produced in prehispanic civilizations. This new edition incorporates fifty new lavish color images and extensive updates based on the latest research and dozens of recent discoveries, particularly in Maya art, where excavations at Teotihuacan, the largest city of Mesoamerica, and Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztecs, have yielded new sculptures. The Art of Mesoamerica remains an ideal companion for the art historian, student and traveler." 410 0$aWorld of art. 606 $aIndian art$zMexico 607 $aCentral America$2fast 607 $aMexico$2fast 615 0$aIndian art 676 $a709.72 700 $aMiller$b Mary Ellen$0779975 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795393903321 996 $aThe art of Mesoamerica$93818996 997 $aUNINA
