For starters, here's an album of some images I grabbed online as reference for the style of my atlas (the style the explorer would use, not the native style): http://flickr.com/photos/dihughes/sets/72157602256257858/. Next week I will have scanned a lot of stuff from the books I'm reading to use as reference for the art style of the inhabitants of Altepehua.

Thanks to the generosity of our dear Marientina, I have a large stack of books that I'm wading through as I'm researching native North and South American cultures. A welcome supplement to my largely Wikipedia-based research which, though a good place to start, really should not be the only place I look. That said, here are the books I'm working my way through.

Here's a rough schedule for Altepehua's development, broken down by weeks. I may have miscounted the number of weeks we have left this semester (I think it's ten...), but this should at least give me an outline of when I need to be working on what.
