Product DescriptionCueva, ciudad y nido de guila es la culminacin de un proyecto internacional de investigaciones y una serie de reuniones organizadas por el Moses Mesoamerican Archive y centradas en el manuscrito pictrico del siglo XVI llamado el Mapa de Cuauhtinchan nm. 2. Pintado sobre un soporte de papel de amate que mide 109 x 204 centmetros, este documento extraordinario contiene ms de setecientas imgenes y smbolos que relatan la historia del surgimiento de los ancestros en Chicomoztoc, su migracin a la ciudad sagrada de Cholula, su fundacin y asentamiento de Cuauhtinchan, la historia de su pueblo y sus reclamaciones sobre el paisaje circundante, y muchos otros sucesos a lo largo del camino.Datado aproximadamente de los aos de 1540, apenas dos dcadas despus de la cada de los aztecas, el mapa recientemente ha sido sometido a un exhaustivo anlisis fsico, tratamiento de conservacin y un registro fotogrfico sistemtico. Muchas de las imgenes resultantes acompaan a los quince ensayos profusamente ilustrados que examinan los sentidos y usos del documento, su compleja narrativa y la memoria social y ritual de un pueblo indgena, luchando por sobrevivir en el entorno turbulento del Mxico colonial temprano.From the Inside FlapThe Spanish Edition of Cave, City, and Eagle's Nest The culmination of recent restoration and analysis, these richly illustrated essays examine the history and meaning of one of Mesoamerica's surviving documents dating from the 1540s.From the Back CoverThe Spanish Edition of Cave, City, and Eagle's Nest The culmination of recent restoration and analysis, these richly illustrated essays examine the history and meaning of one of Mesoamerica's surviving documents dating from the 1540s.About the AuthorDavd Carrasco is Neil L.
