Indian potteryIndians of MexicoAntiquities

Studies of Cholula's ancient ceramic pieces and designs from the Pre-Columbian period and after the Spanish Invasion and Conquest. Antique Cholula pottery is characteristic by its polychrome (many-coloured) complex designs that include stylized feathers, butterflies, geometric patterns and figures of gods, men or animals drawn in a style similar to that used in codices. The book "is not strictly a second edition of the one published in 2001, and although it brings together some texts and photographs of that edition, it now contains new and updated views, in addition to beautiful photographs of unpublished pieces and a beautiful editorial design from the inspiration of Patricia Portugal." (HKB Translation)--Page [9].
