To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An institution similar to the Calmecac existed among the Mixtec at Achiutla.
Other institutions for the religious instruction of the PRIESTHOOD 95 young of both sexes existed in Mexico, attached to various temples. The mode of life was much the same as in the Calmecac, but the discipline was not so severe. As said before, one of the principal functions of the priesthood was the exercise of the art of divination, and the principal instrument was the tonalamatl. The priests of Tlazolteotl were su...pposed to be especially expert in the use of the " book of days " ; the horo- scopes of new-born children were invariably cast, and a favourable day selected for the baptismal cere- mony (as described below, p. I6o), in accordance with the various influences attached to the day of its birth. Constant recourse was had to the interpreters of the tonalamatl in almost every emergency, and prac- tically no enterprise of importance was undertaken except upon a propitious day. But there were numer- ous other methods of divination, and several grades of magical practitioners.
