''Codex Ríos'' is an Italian translation and augmentation of a Spanish colonial-era manuscript, Codex Telleriano-Remensis, that is partially attributed to Pedro de los Ríos, a Dominican friar working in Oaxaca and Puebla between 1547 and 1562. The codex itself was likely written and drawn in Italy after 1566. The manuscript is focused on the Tolteca-Chichimeca culture in the Tehuacan Valley in modern-day Puebla and Oaxaca. It can be divided into seven sections: :# Cosmological and mythological traditions with emphasis on the four epochs. :# An almanac, or ''tonalamatl'', for the 260-day divinatory year common in Mesoamerica. :# Calendar tables for the years 1558 through 1619, without drawings. :# An 18-month festival calendar, with drawings of the gods of each period. :# Ritual customs, with portraits of Indians. :# Pictorial chronicles for the years 1195-1549 beginning with the migration from Chicomoztoc and covering later events in the Valley of Mexico. :# Glyphs for the years 1556 through 1562, without drawings or text. ''Codex Ríos'' consists of 101 pages of European paper, accordion-folded. It is held in the Vatican Library, Rome, and is also variously known as Codex Vatican A, Codex Vaticanus A, and Codex Vaticanus 3738. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Codex Ríos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
