DescriptionIn this paper we will discuss the limitations of Thompson's Catalog [A Catalog of Maya Hieroglyphs (1962)] and the ways in which it can be improved to provide a more effective tool for glyphic research . We begin with a general discussion of the weaknesses of Thompson's Catalog . This is followed by more specific discussions of two areas -- systems for transcribing the glyphs, and methods for revising Thompson ' s classification of elements in the writing system. Finally , we describe our own attempts to produce a computerized corpus of Mayan inscriptions which will enable, among other things, a revised catalog of Mayan glyphs.
