Note 420 — Chapter I

Quatres lettres sur la Méxique; Popul Vuh, p. xcix, and his Sources de l’histoire primitive du Méxique, section viii. pp. xxiv, xxxiii, xxxviii and ix, in his edition of Diego da Landa, Relation des choses de Yucatan (Paris, 1864). H. H. Bancroft, Nat. Races, iii. 112, 264, 480; v. 127, develops Brasseur’s theory. In his Hist. Nat. Civilisées he compares the condition of the Colhua kingdom of Xibalba with Atlantis, and finds striking similarities. Le Plongeon in his Sacred Mysteries (p. 92) accepts Brasseur’s theory.
