Book Description

ISBN-10: 0300062257 | ISBN-13: 978-0300062250 | Publication Date: December 27, 1995 | Edition: 1ST

This fascinating, richly illustrated book explores basic Precolumbian beliefs among ancient Mesoamerican peoples about life and death, body and soul. Drawing on linguistic, ethnographic, and iconographic sources, McKeever Furst argues that the Mexica turned not to mental or linguistic constructions for verifying ideas about the soul but to what they experienced through the senses.
