Title: Dissapointing confusing textile or anthropology?
Review: This book was expensive I won't keep it for long, Not an easy read, gave me the feeling I was reading someone's doctorate anthropological research, turned into a not very good book,For this price there could have been lot more colored photos; the black and white photos are frankly awful (pesimo) More history into Pre-Colombian use of hair sashes and the ornate headresses seen in Mayan frescoes and statues would have been useful.This book is relatively interesting for some of the textile details, but it is a mix-up.. was I looking more at textile designs... or a book about anthropology and the area of Jacatenango,there are many other places with fine textiles in the Mayan highlands.Think the name of the book sounds interesting, so people will buy it.Sometimes I found it easier to read the Spanish. The english is OK but when there are specific Spanish/Mayan words it is easier to understand in Spanish.
