The civilizations Cortes found, and the ones he never knew about. Thomas Joyce surveys the archaeology of ancient Mexico: the Maya and their calendar, the Aztec state and its capital on the lake, the temples and codices, the art and the gods, assembled from what the ground and the survivors could tell. You will discover an early, careful synthesis from the British Museum's specialist. A hemisphere's worth of history. Press play and go into the jungle.
