Gender was a fluid potential, not a fixed category, before the Spaniards came to Mesoamerica. This book offers description and analysis of gender and power relations in prehispanic Mesoamerica from the Formative Period Olmec world (ca. 1500-500 BC) through the Postclassic Maya and Aztec societies of the sixteenth century AD.
