1 Jan 401 Jahr - CODEX IN THE MAYAN REGION

Beschreibung:

Description: Maya codices (singular codex) are folding books stemming from the pre-Columbian Maya civilization, written in Maya hieroglyphic script on Mesoamerican paper, made from the inner bark of certain trees, the main being the wild fig tree or Amate (Ficus Glabrata), this paper was named by the Mayas Huun, and contained many Glyph and paintings.

History: They are the products of professional scribes working under the patronage of the Howler Monkey Gods.

Special Features: The Maya developed their huun around the V century AD, in the same era that the Romans did, but their paper was more durable and a better writing surface than the papyrus.

Uses:Such codices were the primary written records of Maya civilization.
