THE POTTERY CREATIONS OF ACATLAN, THE DISTINCTIVE TREES OF LIFE, THE CANDLE HOLDERS, THE LITTLE CHURCHES, THE DELIGHTFUL TOADS, LIZARDS, GOATS AND BURROS OF THE ACATLAN MARKETS, ARE MORE THAN MODERN DAY CURIOS.  THEIR MATERIALS, METHODS OF MANUFACTURE, AND MANNER OF DECORATION GO FAR BACK IN TIME, AT LEAST TO THE CLASSIC PERIOD OF MESOAMERICAN CULTURE. FROM THE EVIDENCE OF SHERDS FROM THE PAST, THE AUTHOR EFFECTIVELY ESTABLISHES THAT THE POTTERS OF ACATLAN ARE CARRYING ON A TRADITION THAT IS MANY HUNDREDS OF YEARS OLD.  WILL APPEAL TO PROFESSIONAL AND AMATEUR POTTERS, AS WELL AS MESOAMERICAN ETHNOLOGISTS AND ARCHAEOLOGISTS.   COLOR AND B&W ILLUSTRATIONS.
