The Traditional architecture of Mexico / Mariana Yampolsky / text by Chloe Sayer - London : Thames and Hudson , c1993 - 208 p. : illus. ; 26 cm
All over the world there is a reawakening of interest in local, traditional approaches to architecture. In Mexico, nearly five centuries after the Spanish Conquest, the descendants of the Aztec and the Maya may no longer build pyramids, but their rural dwellings reflect the past in other ways: perfectly adapted to their environment, they incorporate natural materials such as palm for thatching, wattle, stones, adobe
