This Is A New Release Of The Original 1901 Edition. A Comparative
Research Based On A Study Of The Ancient Mexican Religious,
Sociological And Calendrical Systems.
1901. Nuttall's mother's Mexican ancestry cultivated her early
interest in that country. On a visit there she studied some
archaeological artifacts and later published a paper on the small
terra-cotta heads found at Teotihuacan. The paper attracted
attention in scholarly circles and won her an appointment as
honorary special assistant in Mexican archaeology at Harvard
University's Peabody Museum and, the next year, a fellowship in the
American Association for the Advancement of Science. While she
lived in Europe, Nuttall traveled extensively for study and to
attend scholarly congresses. The results of her wide-ranging
investigations were published in The Fundamental Principles of Old
and New World Civilizations, in which she traced cultural parallels
between ancient Middle Eastern and American civilizations and
hypothesized that culture may have been carried to the Western
Hemisphere by Phoenician explorers.
