Abstract

THERE can be no surer sign of the smallness of the number of persons in this country who take an interest in the progress of our knowledge of American archaeology, than the fact that not many years ago the editor of this journal asked me to review my own work on the subject, a request which, as far as courtesy would allow, I succeeded in avoiding by effecting a compromise which resulted in the publication of a few general notes on the ancient civilisation of Central America (NATURE, April 28, 1892). The far more grateful task has now been entrusted to me of calling the attention of the readers of this journal to an essay on the Archaic Maya Inscriptions, by Mr. J. T. Goodman, of California, which has been published as an appendix to the archaeological section of the “Biologia Centrali Americana.”
