The article presents comments by the author on the research paper "The Language of Classic Maya Inscriptions," by Stephen Houston and his co-researchers. The author liked the discussion section of the paper as it focuses on issues relevant to people working on hieroglyphic as well as pictographic writing systems. He states that there were ten different languages spoken in the valley of Oaxaca, Mexico with each having many dialects.
