The Munro S. Edmonson Anthropology Collection

The Munro S. Edmonson Anthropology Collection was given to Millsaps College in 2006 by his wife, Dr. Barbara Edmonson.  Munro Edmonson was a well-known Mayan cultural anthropologist and former Tulane University professor, best known for his works on Mesoamerican literatures and calendars.  His collection of books and journals comprise a major resource for the study of Mesoamerican anthropology.
