Éditeur scientifiqueMaarten E.R.G.N. Jansen&#160;(PhD Leiden 1983) is Professor of Heritage of Indigenous Peoples at the Faculty of Archaeology, Leiden University, The Netherlands. He is author of many studies about ancient Mexican art and history including&#160;The Mixtec Pictorial Manuscripts&#160;(Brill, 2011) and&#160;Time and the Ancestors&#160;(Brill 2017).&#160;Virginia M. Lladó-Buisán&#160;is Head of Conservation and Collection Care at The Bodleian Libraries. She has collaborated with various experts on Mesoamerican Archaeology and Conservation Science, in order to advance the scientific study of Mexican manuscripts in the Bodleian collections.&#160;Ludo Snijders&#160;(PhD Leiden 2016) is researcher at Leiden University. He has studied the cultural biography of Mesoamerican manuscripts and is specialised in the recovery of palimpsests through the application of non-invasive investigation techniques.Mesoamerican Manuscripts: New Scientific Approaches and Interpretations&#160;brings together a wide range of modern approaches to the study of pre-colonial and early colonial Mesoamerican manuscripts. This includes innovative studies of materiality through the application of non-invasive spectroscopy and imaging techniques, as well as new insights into the meaning of these manuscripts and related visual art, stemming from a post-colonial indigenous perspective.&#160;This cross- and interdisciplinary work shows on the one hand the value of collaboration of specialists in different field, but also the multiple viewpoints that are possible when these types of complex cultural expressions are approached from varied cultural and scientific backgrounds.&#160;Contributors are: Omar Aguilar Sánchez, Paul van den Akker, Maria Isabel Álvarez Icaza Longoria, Frances F.
