A Primer of Mayan Hieroglyphics, written by Daniel Garrison Brinton and first published in 1895, is a comprehensive guide to the ancient writing system of the Mayan civilization. The book begins with an introduction to the history and culture of the Mayans, including their writing materials and techniques, before delving into the structure and meaning of the hieroglyphics themselves. Brinton provides detailed explanations of the various symbols and their phonetic and ideographic values, as well as examples of how they were used in Mayan inscriptions and codices. The book also includes a glossary of Mayan words and phrases, as well as a bibliography for further reading. A Primer of Mayan Hieroglyphics is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and language of the Mayan civilization, and remains a classic text in the field of Mesoamerican studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
