A fascinating history of the Maya - drawing on a wealth of recent archaeological discoveries - whose civilisation in the jungles of Central America was for almost a thousand years hidden from the world. Over the last two centuries explorers have made the most remarkable discoveries in the tropical forests of Central America. Across much of present-day Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Honduras dozens of cities - some with populations of well over 100,000 - have been unveiled, and every year fresh reports emerge of the findings of unknown Maya ruins - great temples, palaces, towering stone pyramids and the tombs of the Maya kings. What these spectacular discoveries indicate is the former presence of an exceptionally advanced, sophisticated and complex society. Recently, major developments made in the decipherment of Maya hieroglyphics have revealed that alongside the material achievements of the Maya ran intellectual accomplishments in astronomy, maths and calendrics, seemingly tied to the complexities of Maya religion, that were remarkable for a society technically in the Stone Age. From reliefs on temple walls, from magnificent hieroglyphic stairways and from stone stelae planted by Maya rulers in the plazas of their cities, has come written history: the Chronicles of the Maya Kings. David Drew looks at why they constructed their cities in the hostile setting of the jungle, the exact age of their ruins, the strange human images depicted in elaborate costume at so many Maya sites, and he asks why at the time of the Spanish conquest, all knowledge of the Mayas had been lost.

The first translation of a previously unknown Aztec codex and its initiatory teachings for 2012 • Discloses the potential for great spiritual awakening offered at the end of the Aztec calendar cycle • Presents the only existing English-language transcription of the Aztec codex, with line-by-line commentary • Contains the epic poetry and metaphysical insights of Beat poet Marty Matz (1934–2001 In 1961 an unknown Aztec codex was revealed to Beat poet and explorer Marty Matz by a Mazatec shaman in the mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico. Originally intended for dramatic performance, this codex presents a profound metaphysical teaching describing how the end of time will bring about a visionary ascent. At the behest of his Mazatec teacher, Matz transcribed this pictorial codex into a literary form that would preserve its initiatory teachings and reveal its secret meanings to a wider audience.Pyramid of Fire is an epic poem that provides a vehicle to transport the initiate into the higher realms of consciousness. It represents a barely surviving thread of teachings that have been passed down in secret since the time of the Spanish Conquest. Revealed are the techniques by which man is transported to the stellar realm after death via the solar energy within what the ancients called the “serpent of consciousness.” Line-by-line commentary by Matz and John Major Jenkins provides insights into the perennial philosophy contained in the codex and its relevance to our times.

With the Regards of the Author Commentary upon the Maya-Tzental Perez Codex With a Concluding Note upon the Linguistic Problem of the Maya Glyphs William E. Gates Profaor H School ocf Antiquity, IntemationaI Thtasaphical Headquarter, Point torna, Calitornia NOTE THE following papcr was written for separate publication, with the view of summarizing soitle of the data afforded by the problems cotlnected with the Rlaya glyphs, and also bearing lrpon the evolution of language-forms in their relation to hu man I istory it has however, up011 t he suggestiol o f Professor I. UT P . t tna bne, c n issuecl as one of the Papers of the Peabody 3luseurn of American Archaeology and Ethnology, Karvard University. The data tl emselves are the accu nulation of the past twelve years, since the writers interest was, aiter various other fields of linguistic stutly, finally drawn to and fixed upon thc languages of the great pre-Columbian American civilizatio ls. Subsequent researches, begun a few years ago, have led to the belief that all lost equal, parallel results will in the future be found to lie within the great Central Asian district, behind what we know as Chinese but to the writer the greatest door to the past is still that of the Maya glyphs. The trcnd of Science for the past thirty years, after taking its rise then at the very climax so thought of materialism, has now in these last two or threc years, especially, become more manifest. A parallel movement is now apparent in nearly every field, each body of scientists working in their own liiles, yet aII seeming as if led towards recognition of a greater past, and of worthier views. Otle need only mention the work of Professor Soddy, IrofessorSee, Professor Munsterbergarnong many others. In this progress of Science the writer believes Linguistics, in the rvirler sense, to be of paramount inlportance, and that the philosophy of language is inseparable from Archaeology. was discovered just fifty years ago by Prof. Lion de Rosny, while searching through the BibIiothitque ImpPriale, Paris, in the hope of bringing to light some docu ments of interest for the then newly awakened study of Pre-Columbian America. It was found by him in a basket among a lot of old papers, black with dust and practicaIly abandoned in a chitnney corner. From a few words with the name Perez, written on a torn scrap of paper then around it but since lost, it received its name. Being restored to its proper place in the Library, it was in 1864 photographed by order of M. Victor Duruy, Minister of Instruction, and a few copies issued without further explanatory notes than the printed wrappers. The number of copies is stated by Prof. de Rosny to have been very small in Leclercs Bibl. Am. 1878, No. 2290 it is given as only 10, and in Brasscurs Bibl. Mt-. r.-Gwnf. page 95, as 50. A copy is in the library of the Bureau of Ethnology at Washington, and referred to in their publications as a most fortunate acquisition. I had the good fortune to secure a copy some ten years ago, and one other has recently appeared in a Leipzig catalog at a high price. Beyond these I have not traced any other copy. In 1872 Prof. de Rosny published a reproduction, drawn by hand, which, as stated by him later, may be disregarded for practical purposes. In Archives paliographiques dc IOrieftt et de IAmdrique, atlas, t. I, pt. 117-142. In 1887 he issued a facsilnile edition i11 colors,85 copies, which up to the present time has remained the orlly atternpt to show the Codcx in its proper colors, and has become exceedingly difficult to procure so much so that it was only after seven years search that I was able to secure my own copy. In 1888 he reissued the Codex, uncolored, with the samc Icttcr-press, and in an edition of 100 copies. Ihis has also become scarce...
