In the first half of the 16th century, as the conquistadors conquered the territories of Central America for the Spanish Crown, two advanced civilizations came into conflict there. It was during this period that the Codex Egerton was created, bringing together traditions as diverse as those of ancient America and Europe into a new, unique form. In terms of form and content, indigenous traditions predominate, as the manuscript adheres to the tradition of historiography in the form of genealogies (with an emphasis on the female line in its structure). no dj, as issued, in Very good tray case Softcover book and fold-out facsimiles in clam shell box.
