This image displays a page from the Codex of Michoacán, a valuable 16th-century manuscript documenting the history, mythology, and genealogies of the Purépecha people. The ancient handwriting, likely in Spanish and the Purépecha language, reflects the style of early colonial chronicles, using ink on paper or parchment. This codex is a crucial primary source for understanding the Purépecha civilization before and during the Spanish conquest.
