I am familiar with the codices on the FAMSI site and also with the publications of ADEVA, though these are not comprehensive and also only give partial information I seek.</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">I know of several lists that are partial, for example, in Anders and Jansen: "Schrift und Buch im Alten Mexiko", Gordon Brotherston: "</FONT><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">Painted books from Mexico : codices in UK collections and the world they represent"</FONT><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"> or the two recent books by Elizabeth Hill Boone. It has been years since I consulted the "Handbook of Middle American Indians" on the subject and I will do so today as per the suggestion of Galen and also "Los códices de México : historias extrordinarias" as suggested by Kier. I have access to both.</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">I am in the process of reviewing some books and realized that there is no comprehensive listing of codices that I know of which gives their approximate place of origin and age, their present location, physical description and content, as well as if they were ever reproduced with bibliographical information. I would think such an overview would be most helpful to students of Mesoamerican Studies in a variety of disciplines. If any of you ever come across anything, even partial, please let me know. </FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">I am in the process of compiling such a list for my own purposes and if I think it meets the standards for distribution I may submit it.</FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></FONT></DIV><DIV><FONT class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">Thanks again for your kind replies.
