Just like with any other society, past or present, warfare and
conflict existed in Mesoamerica. Of less certainty are the causes
of those wars, their rituals and their impact on the development of
these complex societies. This volume presents the selct proceedings
from a conference (Roads to war and Pipes of Peace) held in
Brussels in 2002 which aimed to examine the many different sides of
Mesoamerican warfare. The ten papers presented here draw on
iconographic, epigraphic and archaeological sources to explore the
nature of wars across the Andes and Mesoamerica, considering such
subjects as the role of kingship, myth and religion in these
conflicts and their depiction on works of art and monuments. Three
papers in Spanish, the rest in English.
