B. Nicholson contains twenty-two original papers in tribute to H.

B. "Nick" Nicholson, a pioneer of Mesoamerican research.

His intellectual legacy is recognized by Mesoamerican archaeologists, art historians, ethnohistorians, and ethnographers--students, colleagues, and friends who derived inspiration and encouragement from him throughout their own careers.

Each chapter, which presents original research inspired by Nicholson, pays tribute to the teacher, writer, lecturer, friend, and mentor who became a legend within his own lifetime.

Covering all of Mesoamerica across all time periods, contributors include Patricia R.

Anawalt, Alfredo Lopez Austin, Anthony Aveni, Robert M.

Carmack, David C. Grove, Richard D. Hansen, Leonardo Lopez Lujan, Kevin Terraciano, and more.

Eloise Quinones Keber provides a thorough biographical sketch, detailing Nicholson's academic and professional journey.

Publication supported, in part, by The Patterson Foundation and several private donors.
