  • The Bilimek Pulque Vessel (From in His Argument for the Tentative Date of 1 Ozomatli, Seler (1902-1923:2:923) Called Atten- Nicholson and Quiñones Keber 1983:No
    CHAPTER 9 The BilimekPulqueVessel:Starlore, Calendrics,andCosmologyof LatePostclassicCentralMexico The Bilimek Vessel of the Museum für Völkerkunde in Vienna is a tour de force of Aztec lapidary art (Figure 1). Carved in dark-green phyllite, the vessel is covered with complex iconographic scenes. Eduard Seler (1902, 1902-1923:2:913-952) was the first to interpret its a function and iconographic significance, noting that the imagery concerns the beverage pulque, or octli, the fermented juice of the maguey. In his pioneering analysis, Seler discussed many of the more esoteric aspects of the cult of pulque in ancient highland Mexico. In this study, I address the significance of pulque in Aztec mythology, cosmology, and calendrics and note that the Bilimek Vessel is a powerful period-ending statement pertaining to star gods of the night sky, cosmic battle, and the completion of the Aztec 52-year cycle. The Iconography of the Bilimek Vessel The most prominent element on the Bilimek Vessel is the large head projecting from the side of the vase (Figure 2a). Noting the bone jaw and fringe of malinalli grass hair, Seler (1902-1923:2:916) suggested that the head represents the day sign Malinalli, which for the b Aztec frequently appears as a skeletal head with malinalli hair (Figure 2b). However, because the head is not accompanied by the numeral coefficient required for a completetonalpohualli Figure 2. Comparison of face date, Seler rejected the Malinalli identification. Based on the appearance of the date 8 Flint on front of Bilimek Vessel with Aztec Malinalli sign: (a) face on on the vessel rim, Seler suggested that the face is the day sign Ozomatli, with an inferred Bilimek Vessel, note malinalli tonalpohualli reference to the trecena 1 Ozomatli (1902-1923:2:922-923).

  • The Zaragozan Organ Builder Joseph Francisco Nassarre Cimorra (1701-1737): Contributions Towards a Biography
    NASSARRE, 30 2014, pp. 91-109 ISSN: 0213-7305 The Zaragozan organ builder Joseph Francisco Nassarre Cimorra (1701-1737): contributions towards a biography EDWARD CHARLES PEPE Resumen: No hay duda de que Joseph de Nassarre era uno de los constructores de órga- nos más importantes para trabajar en la Nueva España. Así, en primer lugar, el artículo se inicia con un breve resumen de los pormenores de sus dos órganos en la catedral de México, construidos entre 1734 y 1736. A continuación, se ha tenido en consideración la biografía de Nassarre, empezando por el análisis de lo escaso publicado hasta la fecha, complementándo- lo con la publicación de los documentos en los que se basó dicha información, y, finalmente, agregando nuevas noticias de gran importancia halladas en archivos españoles. Como re- sultado de esta nueva investigación podemos decir que la familia de Joseph Nassarre vivía en Zaragoza (España), entre 1694 y 1712, y que el organero nació en el año de 1701. Para concluir, basándonos en un vínculo previamente desconocido entre las familias Nassarre y Sesma, sugerimos la capacitación de Joseph Nassarre en el taller de Francisco de Sesma, lo cual podría abrir nuevos caminos para el estudio de los órganos de Nassarre en la catedral de México. Palabras clave: Francisco de Sesma, Joseph Nassarre, México, órgano, Zaragoza. Abstract: There can be no doubt that Joseph Nassarre ranks as one of the most impor- tant organ builders ever to have worked in New Spain. Since some readers might be unfa- miliar with his life and work, this article will briefly review the circumstances surrounding his organs built from 1734 to 1736 in Mexico City Cathedral.

  • The Maize Tamale in Classic Maya Diet, Epigraphy, and Art 153
    CHAPTER 5 TheMaizeTamaleinClassicMaya Diet,Epigraphy,andArt In the past decade of Classic Maya research, the study of iconography and epigraphy has not played a major role in the formulation of archaeological research designs. Site excavation and settlement reconnaissance strategies tend to focus on gathering information relevant to topics such as relative and absolute chronology, settlement patterns, technology, subsistence, and exchange. Most recent epigraphic and iconographic work has focused upon less-material aspects of culture, including calendrics, the compilation of king lists, war events, and the delineation of particular ceremonies and gods. The differences are an expected consequence of increased specialization, but they should by no means be considered as constituting a hard and fast dichotomy. Some of the most exciting and important work results from exchange between the two general disciplines; the calendar correlation problem is an obvious example.
