Summary
In Maya Cosmos: Three Thousand Years on the Shaman's Path, Freidel (Archaeology/Southern Methodist University) presents Mayan archeoastronomy in a very readable and absorbable form.
In a spellbinding tour de force that "will take its place among the best textbooks on the Maya" (USA Today), readers gain an appreciation of the survival of Mayan beliefs and customs as the author are welcomed into present-day Mayan homes and allowed to witness sacred ceremonies. 40 black-and-white photos; 25 line drawings; 16-page full-color photo insert are presented to make the textbook interesting and easy to understand.
Those with a serious interest in Maya myth, symbol, and art, though, can excavate much of value here.
