Мифы, верования и культура древней Мезоамерики (майя, ацтеки, тольтеки)

"The Gods and Symbols of Ancient Mexico and the Maya" is the first-ever English-language dictionary
of Mesoamerican mythology and religion. Nearly 300 entries, from accession to yoke, describe the main gods
and symbols of the Olmecs, Zapotecs, Maya, Teotihuacanos, Mixtecs, Toltecs, and Aztecs.
Topics range from jaguar and jester gods to reptile eye and rubber, from creation accounts and sacred places
to ritual practices such as bloodletting, confession, dance, and pilgrimage.
