The Codex Dresden is the most sophisticated of the four extant pre-conquest Maya manuscripts, the others including the Codex Paris and the Codex Madrid. Perhaps the oldest of the surviving Mesoamerican manuscripts, it was produced in the Yucatán Peninsula, probably in the fifteenth century, and includes material copied from an earlier manuscript or earlier manuscripts.It is a book of time reckoning according to the Maya 260-day calendar and includes ceremonial requirements for rituals and tools for prognostications. It is composed of thirty-nine panels, most of which are painted on both sides, with seventy-four pages containing illustrations accompanied by explanatory hieroglyphs, using a system peculiar to the lowland Maya civilization.
