Lienzo Córdova-Castellanos : manuscript, [between 1900 and 1912].

A tracing (or copy) of a 16th-century Mixtec Indian lienzo from San Esteban Atlatlauhca, Oaxaca. Around the border are Mixtec place glyphs that presumably represent the boundaries of the jurisdiction of the town. Calendrical dates on the left, at the top, and near the center refer to mythological or historical events. The tracing is drawn in ink. The only color that appears is blue which appears in four places to color the heiroglyphic sign for water (at the center of the top and bottom rows and twice along the left edge).

1 item ; 1200 x 1360 mm.
