Ancient Maya codex not fake, new analysis claims
If authentic, Grolier text could claim spot as oldest book in Americas
GENUINE GODS A book called the Grolier Codex — once regarded as a fake by some scientists — may be the oldest known manuscript of ancient America. Deities depicted on the book’s 10 surviving pages include a death god with a decapitated captive (left) and a bird/serpent god.
