Bibliographic notes on Xochicalco, Mexico
A 1928 bibliographic study of the Xochicalco ruins in Mexico, compiled by archaeologist Marshall H. Saville and published in New York by the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, for scholars of Mesoamerican archaeology. The photographs are sepia prints, rotated sideways on the page, of a stepped pyramid face, carved relief panels with glyph-like figures, and a wide view of the plain. A designer might take the dense carved stone patterns and weathered masonry textures as ancient ornament references.
