The standard scholarly monograph on the Bonampak murals, by the Yale art historian Mary Ellen Miller, confirmed as real and in print through multiple independent library catalog and academic journal review citations (Cambridge Core, Princeton University Library, Science). No URL is available for a 1986 print monograph, so none is claimed.

Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
1
Mary Ellen Miller's The Murals of Bonampak, published by Princeton University Press, is treated at the top tier as the standard scholarly monograph, confirmed as real and in print through multiple independent library catalog and academic journal review citations.
Notes
Confirmed through independent citations rather than read directly, since the 176 page monograph is not available as an online full text. Multiple academic reviews (Cambridge Core's Journal of Latin American Studies, American Antiquity and The Americas, and the journal Science) agree on its content: Miller dates the events the murals depict, and by extension their painting, to roughly AD 790 to 792, and concludes from the murals' scale and technical consistency that their planning and execution required a large team of specialists rather than a single painter.
