I've JUST finished a book I started reading in Septemeber that is a mere 233 pages. I am afraid it has a fairly exciting title - Human Sacrifice, Militarism and Rulership: Materialization of State Ideology at the Feathered Serpent Pyramid, Teotihuacan" - but once that is out of the way, it really gets going. For example, it spends 11 pages deciding they used probably used a measure of round about 0.83m and here's an entralling section about a set of bodies:

Although Grave 13 was seriously disturbed, the looters left a larger amount or original fill than was left in Grave 12. Reconstruction of the bodies in Grave 13 indicates that their distribution may have been similar to that of the central grave (Fig 50; compare to Fig. 49). Indicated by its position, and its location independent of others, the complete skeleton of 13-F, recovered from the original fill, seems to have been the counterpart of 14-K in the central grave. Although the general position of 13-F differs from the position of 14-K in our categorization, both may have been tied in bundles that were extremely flexed. Half of individual 13-G, discovered north of 13-F in the original fill, many have been the counterpart of 14-H, as suggested by the position of its reconstructed extremities; and part of a leg of individual 13-H, found in the disturbed layer, also supports the similarity of these two graves, since it might have been the counterpart of individual 14-E of the central grave ....

... I think I'd better stop there.
