Maya Codices
The Maya Codices are ancient books created by the Maya civilization, which flourished in Mesoamerica. These codices were made from bark paper and contained important information about their culture, including history, astronomy, and rituals. Only a few of these codices have survived due to the destruction during the Spanish conquest.
The most famous Maya Codices include the Dresden Codex, the Madrid Codex, and the Paris Codex. Each of these texts provides valuable insights into Maya society, including their calendar systems and religious practices. The codices are crucial for understanding the achievements and beliefs of the Maya people.
