Megalithic sites in Mexico?

A close look at these pages make them seem almost like comic books. There is a scene depicted with glyphs around them to enhance the story. The only Mayan I know how to read are the numerals. Spot any of the bars with dots over them. Each individual bar represents the number 5, whereas each dot represents one. It's a lot like Roman numerals where you add the numbers up to get the one that is meant to be depicted. For instance, on the top of the page with the dark figure, there is a row of two bars with three dots over them. Each of those represent the number 13. If that is a is part of a calendrical date or a count on goods, I have no idea. I suppose it could also be the name of the deity or elite seen in the particular scene.

The ruins in Chiapas, Mexico, hold intricate reliefs that tell much about Maya history.
Strong, Bold, Saturated in Color, Rustic and Refined, Incredibly Ancient yet Incredibly Modern. This is MEXICO. It's a Land full of Talented Artisans who've clearly mastered copper, clay, brass and gold. The Embroidery and Textiles are brilliant, and the Architecture clearly nothing less than insanely inspirational. So why not begin this journey with a little 'Tampico' by June Christy before beginning the scroll down, and enjoy just some of the Amazing Style that Mexico brings to the World Table in terms of Great Design.
