"Maya Archaeologis"t is an autobiographical account of
explorations in Mayan ruins by J. Eric Thompson, one of the world's
foremost authorities on the Maya Indians of Mexico and Central
America. Based on his expeditions from 1926 to 1936 - when
conditions in the Maya area were very close to those in the years
of the Conquest - this book is an intensely personal account of the
investigation of the "stone cities," such as Uxmal, Chichen Itza,
Copan, Tikal, and Quirigua, as well as lively portraits of the
archaeologists who probed this civilization - Morley, Gann,
Ruppert, Vaillant, Roys, and many others.
