Duh... I should have read your first post..
Ok..I was researching another subject last night and just realized something I found might be related to this.
Here is one example. It looks like the next step would be one of those trilingual...books. Image is from Newberry library used here for research purposes. The Newberry is a wonderful place..if you ever get out that way. Sometimes in can be difficult to gain access, serious researchers only.
"This reliance on graphic art as the sole form of communication involved the repetition and promotion of syncretized conventional figures and idols in primary colors. The catechism is to be read from left to right across both pages. De-coding the text, though challenging, is facilitated by consulting the trilingual editions of the "doctrina cristiana" published by friars and widely circulated throughout cities and provinces."
I do not know if a Catechism touches upon articles of faith, instruments of passion and death. Just a lead.
