Download or read book The Aztec Calendar Stone written by Khristaan Villela and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzed by scholars, deployed by Mexican nationalists, beloved by the public, and reproduced in every medium and scale since its rediscovery in 1790, the Aztec Calendar Stone, or Piedra del Sol, has become the most recognizable Pre-Columbian monument. Commissioned by the Mexican emperor Motecuhzoma I in the last decades before the Spanish invasion of the New World and buried by the conquerors not long afterward, the Aztec Calendar Stone has had a far-reaching afterlife in the modern world. The Aztec Calendar Stone includes an extended scholarly introduction and a selection of twenty-one key sources dating from 1581 to the present on this massive and puzzling sculpture--including works by Antonio de Leon y Gama, Alfredo Chavero, Eduard Seler, Hermann Beyer, Carlos Navarrete and Doris Heyden, Cecelia Klein, H. B. Nicholson, Felipe Solis, Eduardo Matos Moctezuma, and others--many published here for the first time in English.

Download or read book Aztec Sun Stone almanac: Archosauria rising Triassic-Jurassic extinction written by Antonio Silvestro and published by Antonio Silvestro. This book was released on 2019-09-20 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The event horizon of a Black Hole has been discovered reading the ≥ 500 years old Aztec ‘Sun Stone’ almanac glyphs and it has been called Tezcatlipoca in honours to the Mesoamerican God, the ‘Smoking Mirror’. The astronomical phenomenon is guessed to cause the mass extinction between Triassic and Jurassic, the one involving the rising of the Archosauria, from aquatic carnivorous PlacoDontoidae super-family into terrestrial herbivorous Zanclodon laevis (Ladinian – Carnian age). Furthermore, a serendipity conjecture about the European colonization of the American continent before 1492 and the biological identifications of theological Demulge family [Noah, Naamah and their three children (Shem, Ham and Josphet)] emerged via syncretism.

Book Synopsis Preservation is Overtaking Us by : Rem Koolhaas
Download or read book Preservation is Overtaking Us written by Rem Koolhaas and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preservation is Overtaking Us brings together two lectures given by Rem Koolhaas at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, along with a response (framed as a supplement to the original lectures) by Jorge Otero-Pailos. In the first essay Koolhaas describes alternative strategies for preserving Beijing, China. The second talk marks the inaugural Paul Spencer Byard lecture, named in celebration of the longtime professor of Historic Preservation at GSAPP. These two lectures trace key moments of Koolhaas' thinking on preservation, including his practice's entry into China and the commission to redevelop the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. In a format well known to Koolhaas' readers, Otero-Pailos reworks the lectures into a working manifesto, using it to interrogate OMA's work from within the discipline of preservation.

Download or read book The Seventh Sun written by Lani Forbes and published by Blackstone Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thrust into leadership upon the death of his emperor father, young Prince Ahkin feels completely unready for his new position. Though his royal blood controls the power of the sun, he’s now responsible for the lives of all the Chicome people. And despite all Ahkin’s efforts, the sun is fading—and the end of the world may be at hand. For Mayana, the only daughter of the Chicome family whose blood controls the power of water, the old emperor’s death may mean that she is next. Prince Ahkin must be married before he can ascend the throne, and Mayana is one of six noble daughters presented to him as a possible wife. Those who are not chosen will be sacrificed to the gods. Only one girl can become Ahkin’s bride. Mayana and Ahkin feel an immediate connection, but the gods themselves may be against them. Both recognize that the ancient rites of blood that keep the gods appeased may be harming the Chicome more than they help. As a bloodred comet and the fading sun bring a growing sense of dread, only two young people may hope to change their world. Rich in imagination and romance, and based on the legends and history of the Aztec and Maya people, The Seventh Sun brings to vivid life a world on the edge of apocalyptic disaster.
