Book Description
Re-Creating Primordial Time offers a new perspective on the Maya codices, documenting the extensive use of creation mythology and foundational rituals in the hieroglyphic texts and iconography of these important manuscripts. Focusing on both pre-Columbian codices and early colonial creation accounts, Vail and Hernández show that in spite of significant cultural change during the Postclassic and Colonial periods, the mythological traditions reveal significant continuity, beginning as far back as the Classic period. Remarkable similarities exist within the Maya tradition, even as new mythologies were introduced through contact with the Gulf Coast region and highland central Mexico. Vail and Hernández analyze the extant Maya codices within the context of later literary sources such as the Books of Chilam Balam, the Popol Vuh, and the Códice Chimalpopoca to present numerous examples highlighting the relationship among creation mythology, rituals, and lore. Compiling and comparing Maya creation mythology with that of the Borgia codices from highland central Mexico, Re-Creating Primordial Time is a significant contribution to the field of Mesoamerican studies and will be of interest to scholars of archaeology, linguistics, epigraphy, and comparative religions alike.

A wanderer roams through a barbarian world of savage men and beasts on a quest to find home. In the distant past, Mesozoic creatures ruled the Great Ocean. Nelarr, a resident of the underwater kingdom of LeMaria, discovers that he can no longer breathe underwater, but needs oxygen from air to survive. Branded a freak of nature, he is banished from the kingdom and labeled an Outkast. It is when breaking the surface that he sees how far the horizon extends. Might there be some unknown place where he may not only survive, but build a new life--a place he can call . . . home. On his journey, he meets another nomad, a giant sea turtle named Mariner. Together, they must battle monsters and other Lemarians who want him dead. From acclaimed artist and animator, Bruce Zick (The Atomic Legion, The Zone Continuum) comes an epic saga of myth and fantasy.

Book Description
This book is a ricochet against mainstream physics. It sprang out of the idea that outer symmetries of space-time are the same as inner symmetries of matter. In other words, the standard model of physics is a space-time group. This book is about structures and phenomena that are lying hidden underneath the surface of space-time. It begins with a few biographic events, Majoranas legacy, the philosophy of Gerhard Frey and some related anthropological topics which have to do with high energy physics. It continues with a reconstruction of the theorem by Banach and Tarski in Minkowski space. We are making acquaintance with the standard model as a property of space-time. So we are challenging quite unusual actions such as penetration of quarks by a probe. We propose to apply a penetrating function D. Then, measure and basis are connected with the axiom of choice.
