Published in conjunction with an exhibition that opened at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in September 2005, the catalogue uses art works to trace the development of the dominant cosmology of Mesoamerica from the Olmecs through the Maya Early Classic period. Most of the 152 figures are color photographs. Distributed outside the Museum by Antique Collectors' Club. (Annotation ©2008 Book News Inc. Portland, OR)
