Aztec Words in Ancient Maya Inscriptions: "Signs of Early Contact"
By Dr. Martha Macri
Nahuatl was the language of the Aztec Empire. Words of Nahuatl origin
can be found spelled with syllabic signs in early Maya inscriptions.
In this talk, Dr. Macri discusses dated monuments that suggest several
distinct periods of early contact between the ancient Maya and the
Nahuatl speaking peoples of Mexico.
