The Corpus of Maya Hieroglyphic Inscriptions 92 Piedras Negras is a collection of ancient texts that provide valuable insights into the history, culture, and beliefs of the ancient Maya civilization. The corpus consists of over 100 hieroglyphic inscriptions found on stone monuments and artifacts from the site of Piedras Negras in Guatemala, dating back to the Classic period (200-800 CE). These inscriptions offer a unique window into the lives of the Maya people, revealing their social organization, religious practices, and political structures. One of the most significant aspects of this corpus is the presence of multiple languages, including Maya, Spanish, and Latin. This linguistic diversity reflects the complex history of the region, where different groups of people interacted and exchanged ideas over time. The texts also demonstrate the use of hieroglyphics as a means of communication, which was essential for the preservation of knowledge and power among the Maya elite. The study of these inscriptions has shed light on various aspects of Maya society, such as the role of women in religious rituals, the importance of astronomical observations, and the use of hallucinogenic substances in spiritual practices.
