Featured Article: Maya codices

Page 9 of the Dresden Codex
Maya codices are folding books stemming from the pre-Columbian Maya civilization. These codices were written in Mayan hieroglyphic script on Mesoamerican paper, made from the inner bark of certain trees, the main being the wild fig tree or Amate (Ficus glabrata). The folding books are the products of professional scribes working under the patronage of the Howler Monkey Gods. The codices have been named for the cities in which they eventually settled. The Dresden codex is generally considered the most important of the few that survive.

Popular Article: Jesus Myth Hypothesis

Resurrection of Christ by Carl Bloch
The Jesus myth hypothesis, or simply Jesus myth, refers to the theory that Jesus never existed, and that his story is actually a syncretism of previous myths and mystery religions that were prevalent in the ancient world. According to this theory, the figure of Jesus is a mythical composite character based on earlier belief systems or historical persons. This hypothesis is distinct from Euhemerization—the belief that Jesus was a real person whose life was later mythologized—and Docetism—the belief that Jesus' physical existence was an illusion. The consensus of most biblical scholars and historians is that Jesus was a historical figure, and the hypothesis of Jesus' non-historicity is rarely discussed in current academic literature.
