Aztecan pigments

Regarding Susan Barger's question on literature sources on Aztec
pigments, I would suggest she take a look at the following article:

    Anderson, Arthur J.
    Pre-Hispanic Aztec colorists
    El Palacio, 55, pp. 20-27, (1948)

I would also suggest:

    Williams, David E. A review of the sources for the study of
    Nahuatl plant classification. New directions in the study of
    plants and people: research contributions from the Institute of
    Economic Botany, Advances in Economic Botany, no. 8, Prance,
    Ghillean t. and Balick, Michael J. , Editors (1990)
