Maya Glyph Codex

The surviving Maya codices — Dresden, Madrid and Paris — are folded screen-books of amate fig-bark paper, sized with thin lime gesso and aged to a warm buff-tan. Across their registers, block-head deity glyphs sit in carbon-black outline beside bar-and-dot numerals, with red reserved for day-signs and emphasis and deep turquoise Maya Blue carrying the figurative passages.

This system rebuilds that scribal logic for the screen: a stuccoed bark ground, thick confident outlines, and a disciplined palette of black, cinnabar red and Maya Blue. Type is blocky and inscriptional, layout is gridded into almanac panels, and ornament stays earned — every mark reads like it was painted by an aj tz'ib who knew exactly where it belonged.

现存的玛雅手抄本——德累斯顿、马德里与巴黎三部抄本——是用无花果树皮（amate） 制成的折叠书页，先涂一层薄薄的石灰灰泥，再随岁月泛成温暖的褐黄色。书页上一格 一格的历法册中，方头神祇字符以碳黑勾边，配以条点数字；红色专用于日符与强调， 深青绿的「玛雅蓝」则承载着叙事性的图像段落。

这套设计语言把抄本书吏的章法搬到屏幕上：以灰泥树皮为底，用厚重笃定的轮廓线， 辅以克制的黑、朱砂红与玛雅蓝三色。字体方正、带碑刻感；版面切分成历法面板； 装饰从不滥用——每一笔都像出自深谙位置经营的书吏之手。
