Literature
and Language of Ancient Meso-America
The traditions
of
indigenous Mesoamerican literature
extend back to the oldest-attested forms of
early
writing in the
Mesoamerican region, which date from
around the mid-1st
millennium BCE. Many of the
pre-Columbian cultures of Mesoamerica
are known to have been
literate societies, who produced a
number of
Mesoamerican writing systems of varying
degrees of complexity and completeness.
Mesoamerican writing systems arose
independently from other
writing systems in the world, and their
development represents one of the very few
such origins in the
history of writing.
