the long version

"The concordance for all known hieroglyphic texts from the late classic lowland Maya city of Palenque employs a very useful revision and extension of the standard Thompson system for transcribing Maya glyphs. A transcription of the texts includes brief commentaries indicating generally accepted interpretations (and sometimes corresponding Mayan readings) for many of the more straightforward glyphs. Includes a revised glyph catalog with a full listing of changes to Thompson's system and discussion of the rationale for them"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
