Resumen
This article presents a comparative study of two 16th-century Kaqchikel manuscripts held at the Ibero-Amerikanisches Institut in Berlin and the Hispanic Society of America in New York. These manuscripts, which are partial translations of Luis de Granada’s Libro de la oración y meditación, reveal significant insights into the spread of European religious texts in Mesoamerica. Through detailed physical descriptions and analysis, the study traces the provenance of these manuscripts, suggesting a shared history and providing a first analysis of the Kaqchikel translation. The findings contribute to our understanding of missionary language policies in early colonial Guatemala.

Resumen
This work is dedicated to the study of the Drawing 13 of the Naj Tunich cave, Guatemala. We discuss both the epigraphic reading of this text and the information on ritual practices it provides and the historical implications that its content would have on our knowledge of the geopolitics of southeastern Petén towards the end of the Late Classic.

Resumen
In the second half of the eighteenth century and the first decades of the nineteenth century, eight Indigenous women from the pueblo de indios of Metzitlán defended their rights to land tenure in front of the colonial courts of New Spain. Four of these women belonged to the local elite, while the rest were part of the common people and identified as tribute payers. By following each of these cases, this article shows how gender, status and belonging to a social class were factors that shaped these women’s agencies in accessing land as a means of livelihood.

Resumen
In this article I sketch a portrait of a supernatural serpent that has received very little attention from the investigators of Teotihuacan: the Lightning Serpent. I present the different forms in which it appears and facets of its nature, establishing a link with the Rain God and the Feathered Serpent. I propose that the headdress on the Feathered Serpent’s back in the Feathered Serpent pyramid in Teotihuacan (which has been interpreted in several different ways), is one of its most remarkable representations. If my proposal is correct, the meaning of the pyramid’s iconography will have to be reconsidered. Finally, our examination of the images of the Lightning Serpent can enable us to recognise the members of the elite of Teotihuacan, who were associated with it.

Resumen
Skull scaffold, skull wall, skull row or tzompantli are some of the names we commonly use to refer to the structure designed to hold skulls together. The Maya skull walls have a long tradition that recognizes regional and temporal particularities. Being trophy heads, the skulls arranged in their scaffolds conferred a particular meaning and purpose. This research aims to understand these structures from an ontological perspective, as metaphors for trees where the heads were the fruit containers of vital elements, trees that enabled the renewal of the lives that were consumed. Throughout this text, I will focus on examples from the Classic Maya period.

Resumen
This article is an approach to the fieldwork carried out by the German philologist and archaeologist Max Uhle (1856-1944) during his stay in Chile (1912-1919). Uhle’s training as a philologist and archaeologist brought together elements that led him to elaborate a unique method of reading the different findings corresponding to the sites explored and excavated in the North Grande, North Chico and Central Zone. A review of his biography reveals the construction of a cultural-historical method applied to the so-called Pan-Andean cultural horizon. We will accompany the record with a selection of sketches found in one of his notebooks which forms part of Uhle’s corpus of 26 notebooks from his Chile period.

Resumen
Two religious art objects, La Dolorosa and the Virgen del Carmen, were recently found in a parish church in Chitré, (Herrera, Panama). Because of their historiographic value, the works have been evaluated to establish their authorship, origins, and context in New Granada. The research design is based on the systematization of the other elements of the iconographic method and the anthropology of images. It addresses the historical evangelizing scenario involving the Spanish and Indigenous peoples. Religious images had an important social function as they conveyed religious and cultural messages that helped to shape a new identity for Indigenous and mestizo peoples. This process was reflected in Indigenized baroque art, which combined European and Indigenous elements.

Resumen
We can recognize three moments between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 21st century in which the link between researchers and Indigenous speakers has taken different forms, according to the theoretical frameworks applied and the disciplinary spaces from which research is carried out. In this work we propose to analyze three models: the ‘collector’, the ‘rescue’ and the ‘collaborative’ models. They correspond to three main types of collaborators throughout the period: the ‘anonymized speakers’, whose function was to provide some lexical terms and general information about languages; ‘identified speakers’, who played a key role in the linguistic descriptions; and ‘involved speakers’, members of the communities that develop or actively accompany instances of linguistic research and revitalization.

Resumen
It has long been proposed that the term for ‘sweet potato’ in Eastern Polynesian languages, kumala, is a loanword from Quechuan kumar ‘sweet potato.’ In this paper, it is hypothesized that a related form also exists in the Tupi-Guarani family of the eastern lowlands of South America: kumana ‘bean.’ In some languages of South America, further examples can be found for the unexpected link between terms for ‘sweet potato’ and ‘bean,’ that is, between terms referring to tuberous and seed-like crops, respectively. These cases suggest that it is justifiable to compare Quechuan kumar ‘sweet potato’ and related forms with Tupi-Guarani kumana ‘bean’ and related forms. In addition, Tupi-Guarani kumana ‘bean,’ or a form derived from it, has been borrowed into many other lowland South American languages. Accordingly, the form %kumar(a) has reflexes in the languages of Polynesia, the Andes, and the South American lowlands, and is one of the most widespread Wanderwörter of the Southern Hemisphere.
