دانلود کتاب The Ancient Maya

“The first edition was an eloquent summary of Morley’s life work. It was a delight to read and to look at, and it was recognized by an eager read¬ ing public as a magnificent panorama of the Maya world.... The re¬ vised edition of The Ancient Maya presents the full sweep of the Maya development within an archaeological framework which is in accord with the most recent findings but without sacrificing much of Morley’s enthusiasm and admiration for the Maya. It offers the same rich sam¬ pling of the Maya grandeur which made the original edition so popular, as well as new material.”—American Journal of Archaeology. “An artistic and historic feast, and an education that makes learning a delight.”—Harry Hansen, New York World Telegram and Sun. “The classic work on the subject for non-professionals, and this third edition is fully as attractive and as lavishly illustrated as its predeces¬ sors.”—San Francisco Chronicle. “Together the text and illustrations form one of the most readable clas¬ sics of archaeological literature.”—Scientific American. “Remains, without question, the basic general work on Mayan civiliza¬ tion.”—Hispanic American Report.
