In Post-Conquest times Mayan scribes kept alive an apparently Pre-Columbian custom of transcribing or renewing the sacred books in their charge. This custom, in fact, seems to have survived down to the present if the reports from such towns as X-Cacal Guardia, Chan Cah, Chum Pom, and Dzitnup are true. As early as the latter part of the 16th century Mayan scribes began transcribing their material in the Latin script, and abandoned the general use of hieroglyphs. In the colonial manuscripts available to us there is only a scant use of hieroglyphs, and those glyphs which are shown are remote in execution from their Pre-Columbian counterparts.
