Description: Under the influence of James Churchward and his theory on the allegedly lost civilization of Mu, in the 1930s Ataturk sent Tahsin Mayatepek to Mexico as an ambassador, so that he could carry out a comparative investigation between Turkish and Maya culture. He made a series of reports on what he claimed to have found, and these are discussed and in part reproduced in this volume.
