Nearly twenty-five years ago, David Stuart published an article titled “The Arrival of Strangers,” in which he proposed that “Spearthrower Owl,” a prominent historical figure cited in the Early Classic inscriptions of Tikal, might be a ruler of Teotihuacan. Stuart expands on this provocative argument in Spearthrower Owl: A Teotihuacan Ruler in Maya History, offering evidence that Spearthrower Owl was a historical individual whose political legacy reverberated for generations in the Maya Lowlands and Central Mexico

    THE HIDDEN LANGUAGE OF GRAPHIC SIGNS: CRYPTIC WRITING AND MEANINGFUL MARKS
    JOHN BODEL
    A common belief is that systems of writing are committed to transparency and precise records of sound. The target is the language behind such marks.

But what if embellishments mattered deeply - if hidden writing, slow to produce, slow to read, played as enduring a role as more ac...
