Description:
The codice Colombino describes the life of a distinguished Pre-Columbian governor of Tututepec and Tilantongo (Oaxaca) named 8-Venado "Garra de Tigre" and represents a pictorial biography of one of the most important lords and warriors living during the 11th and 12th centuries in the Mixteca civilization. The CD version breaks the texts down into manageable fragments and contains explanations. The series will contain approximately 190 codices from the collection of the library at INAH.
