Charles,

Thanks so much for the high resolution scans, particularly the 19th century
maps.  They are exquisite!

Subject: [Aztlan] in-depth scholarly web site

Colleagues,

I have just posted an in-depth Maya web site:

http://academic.reed.edu/uxmal/

This web site provides some 250 19th and early 20th century drawings,  
prints, and photographs, most rare or previously unpublished,  
revealing how these Maya sites were imaged by early explorers and  
scholars.

There are also over 1000 recent photographs with descriptive captions,  
many recording information not previously available in print or on the  
web. These may be opened side-by-side, making possible comparison of  
these sites before and after the extensive restoration campaigns of  
the 20th century.

There is an extensive annotated bibliography
