Maya Worlds 2006 Participants' Required Text List
Please note that
the Institute scholars' have identified these texts as basic to their
seminars; it is the responsibility of each participant to acquire
these texts prior to the Institute and to bring them to the relevant
seminars. Most other readings in the Daily Schedule will be supplied
in Institute Readers, which will be sent to each participant well
before the start of the Institute. Others will be available through
an "Institute Lending Library" that will be made available
during the Institute by the project directors.
