little more than begun, such striking
discoveries have already been made

is excavating the ancient Maya city,
Chichen Itza, in Yucatan, that high
hopes are entertained that 1927 will
prove a notable year in the study
of the remarkable race Of American
aborigines who once lived there.

Directly in front of the altar,
