Joyce is a scholarly scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book offers a synthesis of knowledge surrounding the life and culture of the Mexican and Maya peoples before Spanish colonization, aiming to fill gaps in existing research while providing a framework for future archaeological investigations. Joyce’s work discusses the complexities of ancient Mexican civilization, including their religious practices, societal structures, and artistic achievements. The opening of this text presents Joyce's aims and methodologies in discussing Mexican and Maya archæology. He acknowledges the limitations of current knowledge while emphasizing the importance of summarizing findings to inspire further research. Joyce reflects on the historical significance of pre-Spanish civilizations, particularly the stories of the Aztecs and Mayans, and sets the stage for a structured exploration of their cultural legacies. He outlines his intent to focus primarily on these two groups while recognizing the broader geographical context of their achievements within Mexico and Central America.
