Feb. 5 and Feb. 6, Mayan Hieroglyphs Part I and Part II together, $150 contribution to help cover the cost of the extensive photography of Mayan inscriptions on polychrome vases and plates. If you cannot come as early as Feb. 5th, cost for Feb. 6th is $100. Please keep in mind that we spent over $52,000 on rollout camera systems for taking photographs of Primary Standard Sequence hieroglyphs. |

If workbooks are available, it will be in the form of large size enlargements (11x17 inch) of digital rollouts of hieroglyphic texts on Maya vases, bowls, and plates. (Yes, the FLAAR digital rollout camera can even rollout the insides of plates). Each set of rollouts, mostly material which has never been published at all, or not elsewhere available in rollout form, as ask $100 contribution to assist in covering the numbing costs we incurred photographing rare Mayan hieroglyphic inscriptions during the last six months in Guatemala. Checks for Feb. 5-6, Sunday Feb. 7 through the end, help cover the expenses of preparing the FLAAR portion of the symposium. |
