Note IV-39 — Chapter IV · ANTIQUITIES OF GUATEMALA AND BELIZE.
Reading edition
Pontelli's account with some plates was published in the Correo de Ultramar, Paris, 1860. I have not seen the original, but what purports to be a translation of it in the California Farmer, Nov. 7, 1862, is the veriest trash, containing nothing definite respecting the location or description of the pretended discoveries.
