Summary:"Revised Master's thesis convincingly broadens the base of substantiation for the conceptual complex identified by other scholars, associating rain, maize, and the planet Venus. Explores cultures across Mesoamerica and over time, probing astronomical, ethnohistorical, and ethnographic information to clarify the meaning of the complex"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
