Abstract

Examines and reconstructs the original indigenous logic behind sorcery, analyzing manifestations from the early Olmec to the ethnographic present. While the topic of sorcery and witchcraft in anthropology is well developed in other areas of the world, it has received little academic attention in Mexico and Central America region until now.--Provided by publisher.
