Lienzo Seler II or Coixtlahuaca II is a complex pictographic document on cotton cloth from the sixteenth century in the Northern Mixteca region of Mexico. The Mixtec-Chocho-speaking native painter-scribes of the Lienzo Seler II depicted changing perceptions of space in Mesoamerica in the transition from the pre-Hispanic to the colonial era by using a new map-format but maintaining the ancient tradition of symbols. The Lienzo recently underwent extensive physical analysis and a systematic photographic survey resulting in the images shown in the first section of the volume followed by eleven essays written by a group of international scholars that explore the document from different perspectives.
