Library curator John Hessler's new book, “Collecting for a New World: Treasures of the Early Americas,” explores the treasures of the Jay I. Kislak Collection of the Archaeology & History of the Early Americas.
In September, the John W. Kluge Center welcomed Simon Martin, anthropologist and specialist in Maya hieroglyphic writing, as the second Jay I. Kislak Chair for the Study of the History and Cultures of the Early Americas.
