The Codex Bodley is an important pictographic manuscript and example of Mixtec historiography dating to circa 1500 in a variant form of the Mixteca-Puebla style of Codex writing. It's colloquial name comes from the Bodleian Library, where it's been stored since the 17th Century. It is also referred to as the "Codex Ñuu Tnoo"[1] with Ñuu Tnoo being the Mixtec name for a city now known as Tilantongo (directly from its Nahuatl name), which translates to "Black Town-Temple of Heaven."
