Reviews and discusses everything ever written on the ancient ballgames of Mesoamerica, then informs the reader which theories are useful, and which are nonsence. This is a copy of the author's own notebook ( in other words, a work-in-progress). Even in its preliminary state it contains a wealth of information and serves as a standard desk reference on iconography and archaeology of the ballgames. This bibliography will save you weeks of searching for information elsewhere, since everything is neatly in alphabetical order and is cleverly cross-referenced. A steal at $20 for so much data.

Features photographs never before published from the F.L.A.A.R. archives (as you come to expect from all F.L.A.A.R. publications). This is the first re-analysis of the Actun Balam vase which points out the several key features shared with ballplayer scenes, (hint: some enactments of the Maya ballgame were the re-enactment of the Hero Twins out hunting; you drag your prey back to the ballcourt, "hunt" them in the ballgame, and then slay them...). In the Pseudo God L report you find out that other ballgames were the re-enactment of battles where one team fought the captives...Now you know why some ballplayers wear warrior's outfits and other ballplayers wear deer hunter outfits (and why other hunters are dressed as deer...). All the information is in this series of workbooks for the annual BCC-FLAAR Maya symposium. $20. No. 6318

This report is especially useful for Yaxchilan and Bonampak (both the stelae and the murals), and is a key source for identification of ballplayer headdresses on polychrome vases. $20. No. 6321

This Graz edition has several advantages over the Ph.D. version, lots in color, lots not in the Ph.D. version, and additional text. Although the Graz edition is primarily in German, ALL CAPTIONS to all illustrations ARE IN ENGLISH. Most people buy both the Ph.D. version to get the complete text in English, then buy the Graz additional also to get all the color plus the updates (the additional data). If you buy both together, $200 (gives you three volumes, namely two volumes in English (Ph.D. version), plus one volume bi- lingual with color, Graz Monster and Men)
