So Far, So Good

I just wanted to say thus far (the first 7 comments), so good (hit "Older Post" if the original prompt is not on this page). The comments thus far have stressed the relationship between the argument as written and the illustrations. Proskouriakoff's article is a great case study in how to do this - perhaps because she is in such a difficult situation, with most people having no firm idea of the Maya writing system.
