Codex Bodley...Mixtec Manuscript for 28mm Mesoamerica/Gringo4os
« on: September 26, 2013, 11:36:26 PM »
Just purchased the "Codex Bodely" in Hardback ..
states " A painted chronicle from the Miztec highlands
looking forward to receiving this
my question is where can i obtain decent copies of the
other more famous Codexs..(there wasnt that many that escaped
the flames!
interested in our experts view on using these as a reference
due to the complexity of the drawings though the Bodely
is explained i believe in the form of a pictoral translation
personally im looking for more of the unusual troop types
and personalities..whatever the tribe :-*

I got an excellent copy of the Anawalt edition of the Codex Mendoza from Amazon.
