Highly regarded scholar Davíd Carrasco provides an overview of the history of Mesoamerican cultures and vivily describes their religious forms, structures, myths, and prevailing 'cosmovision'--the Mesoamerican view of time and space and its ritualized representation and enactment. Carrasco details the dynamics of two important, representative cultures--the Aztec and the Maya --and discusses the impact of the Spanish conquest and the continuity of native traditions into the post-Columbian and contemporary eras. Integrating recent archaeological discoveries in Mexico City, he brings about a comprehensive understanding of ritual human sacrifice, a subject often ignored in religious studies."--Back cover.
