At the time of the Spanish conquest, Ch'olti' was spoken throughout much of the southern Maya lowlands in what is present-day Peten and Chiquimula, and is closely related to that spoken by the authors of the Classic Maya inscriptions. This book presents for the first time a facsimile, transcription, English and Spanish translation, and grammatical analysis of the Moran Manuscript, a Colonial-era document that provides the sole attestation of Ch'olti'.
