THE ANCIENT MONUMENTS
OF
NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. SECOND EDITION, Corrected, enlarged and with some additions, BY C. S. RAFINESQUE, A. M.—Ph. D. Professor of Historical and Natural Sciences, Member of many Learned Societies in Philadelphia, New York, Lexington, Cincinnatti, Nashville, Paris, Bordeaux, Brussels, Bonn, Vienna, Zurich, Naples &c., the American Antiquarian Society, the Northern Antiquarian Society of Copenhagen &c. The massive ruins the arts and skill unfold
Of busy workers, and their styles reveal,
The objects and designs of such devisers:
In silent voices they speak, to thinking minds
They teach, who were the human throngs that left
Uplifted marks for witness of past ages. PHILADELPHIA 1838. Printed for the Author.
