Thanksglyphing - Dirt 164

We're shaking things up this year, and instead of doing a ThanksViking episode, we're peeking into the world of Maya and Aztec art and writing. The Maya wrote using a system of around 800 glyphs--the Aztecs used as many as 2,000. We won't get to ALL of these, but we'll talk about how these writing systems developed, how they were used, and the role they played in the lives of the Aztec and Maya people.
