He tells us nothing more about it. Can anyone enlighten me regarding the nature and significance of this practice? Were such practices common among the Nahuas? Does Sahagun mention any such activities? Are there any contemporary analogues or descendants of the activity? Duran's description recalls to mind practices in other cultures which involve a temporary reversal (inversion) of the established hierarchy between master and servant, serf, or slave. Is this what is going on here?

Well, after MUCH looking around, I have found a font/keyboard layout which will allow me to do macrons and grave accents in Microsoft Word using Macintosh OSX (10.2). I'm not talking about Classic mode. You just fire up Word in OSX and write away! Those of you who do transcriptions of colonial docs will like to know that you can put the macron over any letter, capital or small case. As you know, the free standing macron and grave accent look horrible over an "i", so there is a special keyboard combination just for this letter. The font/keyboard layout is called LaserYukon, it costs a little under 100 bucks, and it is available from www.linguistsoftware.com. Yeah, it's expensive, but if you need the tools of the trade......
