London Henry Berthoud 1822. First Edition<br/><br/> "Captain Del Rio examined the now famous ruins of Palenque in 1787 but his manuscript report remained in the provincial archives of Guatemala until a short time prior to their translation and publication in the present form. The translator gave so literal a version that he did not change the references in the body of the work which referred to drawings that had been irrecoverably lost. Captain Del Rio's Report occupies pp. 1 to 21 and in the remainder of the work Dr. Cabrera attempts to establish the theory that the figures upon the monuments of Palenque prove a connection between the Egyptians and the Aboriginal race which constructed them.From the occurrence of an eclipse recorded 291 years before Christ corresponding with the same date in the Mexican calendar he constructs a table of the Mexican years."
