What is the Bodleian codex? Googling turns up some Mesoamerican stuff. Chatgpt recommended Heath's translation, either Dover or Green Lion Press, and people in another thread on this board about Elements recommended Heath too. I had a look at both Dover and Green Lion Press, and it seems Dover has commentary, while Green Lion Press doesn't. Is that commentary worth reading? I haven't read it yet. This pic is from Dover, the link I posted earlier.

All the text below the red line is commentary. Most other books and websites only have the text above the red line it seems. This website has commentary by David E Joyce.

Anyway thoughts on commentaries? Do you need them? Which are the best? Etc.
