""An indisputable contribution to the multiple fields that the general theme of ritual temporality crosses and the methodologies that research in the social sciences outlines and requires. The diversity of sources examined--written, pictorial, artifactual, architectural, geographical, as well as performative, gestural, linguistic--is monumental."" --Regina Lira Larios, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México
