520 2  "Complex and time-consuming to produce, pyrite mirrors 
       stand out among Prehispanic artifacts for their aesthetic 
       beauty, their symbolic implications, and the complexity 
       and skill of their assembly. Manufactured Light presents 
       the latest archaeological research on these items, 
       focusing on the intersection of their significance and use
       and on the technological aspects of the manufacturing 
       processes that created them. The volume covers the 
       production, meaning, and utilization of pyrite mirrors in 
       various Mesoamerican communities. Chapters focus on topics
       such as experimental archaeology projects and discussions 
       of workshops in archaeological contexts in the Maya, 
       Central Mexico, and northwest Mexico regions. Other 
       chapters concentrate on the employment and ideological 
       associations of these mirrors in Prehispanic times, 
       especially as both sacred and luxury items. The final 
       chapters address continuities in the use of mirrors from 
       Prehispanic to modern times, especially in contemporary 
       indigenous communities, with an emphasis on examining the 
       relationship between ethnographic realities and 
       archaeological interpretations. While the symbolism of 
       these artifacts and the intricacy of their construction 
       have long been recognized in archaeological discussions, 
       Manufactured Light is the first synthesis of this 
       important yet under-studied class of material culture. It 
       is a must-read for students and scholars of Mesoamerican 
       archaeology, ethnography, religion, replicative 
       experimentation, and lithic technology. Contributors 
       include: Marc G. Blainey, Thomas Calligaro, Carrie L.
