Reading edition

Other travellers who have visited them are John Baily, Central America (Lond. 1850); A. P. Maudsley, Explorations in Guatemala (Lond. 1883), with map and plans of ruins, in the Proc. Roy. Geog. Soc. p. 185; W. T. Brigham’s Guatemala (N. Y., 1886). Bancroft (iv. 109) epitomizes the existing knowledge; but the remains seem to be less known than any other of the considerable ruins. There are a few later papers: G. Williams on the Antiquities of Guatemala, in the Smithsonian Report, 1876; Simeon Habel’s “Sculptures of Santa Lucia Cosumalhuapa in Guatemala” in the Smithson. Contrib. xxii. (Washington, 1878), or “Sculptures de Santa (Lucia) Cosumalwhuapa dans le Guatémala, avec une rélation de voyages dans l’Amérique Centrale et sur les cótes occidentales de l’Amérique du Sud, par S. Habel. Traduit de l’anglais, par J. Pointet,” with eight plates, in the Annales du Musée Guimet, vol. x. pp. 119-259 (Paris, 1887); Philipp Wilhelm Adolf Bastian’s “Stein Sculpturen aus Guatemala,” in the Jahrbuch der k. Museen zu Berlin, 1882, or “Notice sur les pierres sculptées du Guatémala récemment acquises par le Musée royal d’ethnographie de Berlin. Traduit avec autorisation de l’auteur par J. Pointet,” in the Annales du Musée Guimet, vol. x. pp. 261-305 (Paris, 1887); and C. E. Vreeland and J. F. Bransford, on the Antiquities at Pantaleon, Guatemala (Washington, 1885), from the Smithsonian Report for 1884.
