Aerial and ground photographs give both armchair and actual visitors unparalleled views of fifty-one ancient cites. The restored areas of each site and their interesting and exotic features are shown within each group of ruins.

The authors have thoroughly revised the text for this new edition, and they have added over thirty new photographs and illustrations as well as a completely new chapter by Richard E. W. Adams on regional states and empires in ancient Mesoamerica."--BOOK JACKET.
