El Códice Moguntiacus o Códice Ma- guncia, nombrado así por el nombre de la ciudad alemana donde reapare- ció a principios de la década de 1950, ha sido reconocido desde hace tiempo como un manuscrito falsificado copiado de varias páginas de dos manuscritos pictográficos: el Códice Colombino de la época prehispánica y el Lienzo de Tlaxcala de la época colonial temprana. Cuando Caso (1966) denunció las páginas en estilo mixteco del Códice Moguntiacus como falsificaciones, su relación con otras versiones falsificadas y copias del Códice Colombino y del Lienzo de Tlaxcala, no estaba de todo claro y había poca información disponible sobre la historia y procedencia de este manuscrito. Nuevos mate- riales archivísticos, así como literatura publicada pero poco conocida, permi- ten aclarar mucho de la historia y procedencia del Códice Moguntiacus. -

Contemporary Studies and Discussions 127
CONTEMPORARY STUDIES AND DISCUSSIONS 127 CHAPTER FOUR CONTEMPORARY STUDIES AND DISCUSSIONS Our own work started in the aftermath of the International Congress of Americanists in Mexico (1974). We met in 1974 in Ñuu Ndeya (Chalcatongo) by mere chance (if there is such a thing), during Aurora’s rescheduled vacation to attend the Patron Feast of September 8 and Maarten’s first (and unplanned) trip to the Mixteca Alta. Born in the Mixtec traditional community of Yuku Shoo, belonging to Ñuu Ndeya, Aurora had learned her first Spanish when she entered the local primary school at the age of eleven. After finishing at that school, she worked as a domestic servant in Mexico City and then for two years as a migrant in the United States, where she learned English. Coming back to Mexico she worked as a hotel-receptionist and tour guide in Oaxaca, and then for seven years as an international tele- phone operator in Mexico City, during which time she made her first trip to Europe. Meanwhile Maarten had combined the study of Greco- Roman philology and archeology (B.A.) with minors in Nahuatl and Quechua at Leiden University, and had started the M.A. specialization in ancient American civilizations with Professor Ferdinand Anders at the Institut für Völkerkunde, Vienna University. As part of his long-term research, Anders was directing a major project of facsimile editions of ancient Mexican codices at the Akademische Druck-und Verlagsanstalt (ADEVA) in Graz, Austria. Becoming involved in this project, Maarten tried to apply his Leiden training in iconographical and philological methods to these manuscripts. -

Without the endless support, both in and out of the classroom (and free lunches!), of Dr. Kent Reilly, this thesis would not exist. The benevolent Dr.-Fr.

The Tree of Life Design 2
S. Busatta– The Tree of Life Design 2 Cultural Anthropology 337 - 346 The Tree of Life Design From Central Asia to Navajoland and Back (with a Mexican Detour) Part 2 Sandra Busatta The Tree of Life is an archetype that appears in art and literature the world over, from the Biblical Garden of Eden with its Tree of Life and Tree of Knowledge, to India, where the symbol is represented by a voluptuous woman with her arm around a tree that blossoms with flowers. In China it can be seen in ancient “money trees” made of precious metals and adorned with fantastical animals. Let's examine now the concept’s incarnation in Mexico. Trees of Life in Mexico (a) Pre-Hispanic cultures Depictions of world trees are found in cultures such as the Olmec, Teotihuacan, Izapan, Maya, Aztec, Mixtec, and others, dating to at least the Mid/Late Formative periods of Mesoamerican chronology. Directional world trees are also associated with the four Yearbearers in Mesoamerican calendars, and the directional colors and deities. A Ceiba tree could be found at the center of most pre-Columbian Mesoamerican villages. The Ceiba is a tall tree with large buttressed roots, a remarkably straight trunk, and a high horizontal crown. A majestic tropical tree and appropriate symbol for the complex interactions within the environment. The giant limbs of the Ceiba's Antrocom Online Journal of Anthropology 2013, vol. 9. n. 2 – ISSN 1973 – 2880 81 S.

Searching for the Sanctuary of Lady 9 Reed: Huajuapan, Ring of Stones
Searching for the Sanctuary of Lady 9 Reed: Huajuapan, Ring of Stones Angel Iván Rivera Guzmán Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (INAH), Mexico [email protected] Maarten E.R.G.N. Jansen Faculteit Archeologie, Universiteit Leiden, The Netherlands [email protected] Gabina Aurora Pérez Jiménez Faculteit Archeologie, Universiteit Leiden, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract: e Ñuu Dzaui (Mixtec) codices refer to a place-sign ‘Ring of Stones’, which, the context suggests, must be an important Postclassic site in the Mixteca Baja region (in the Mexican states of Oaxaca and Puebla). e Patron Deity of this place is Lady 9 Reed, who plays an active role in early Ñuu Dzaui history, particularly in the episode known as the ‘War against the Stone Men’. She had various sanctuaries throughout the region, e.g. in Tonalá, where she was visited by the warrior king Lord 8 Deer ‘Jaguar Claw’ in AD 1097. is article presents arguments for the identication of ‘Ring of Stones’ as ancient Huajua- pan (in the Western part of the State of Oaxaca, Mexico) and examines some of the related archaeological remains. Keywords: Mixtec codices; Mixtec archaeology; Mixtec religion; Mixtec toponyms; sacred landscape; pre-Hispanic period. Resumen: Los códices de Ñuu Dzaui (la región mixteca) mencionan un signo toponímico ‘Anillo de Piedras’, que, según sugiere el contexto, tiene que ser un importante sitio post- clásico en la Mixteca Baja (en los Estados de Oaxaca y Puebla, México). La Deidad Patrona de este lugar es la Señora 9 Caña, que juega un papel protagónico en la historia temprana de Ñuu Dzaui, particularmente en el episodio de la ‘Guerra contra los Hombres de Piedra’. -
