Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cave Hunting in Yucatan: A Lecture Delivered Before the Society of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, on December 10, 1896
But why search caves? Why go under ground? Why leave the daylight and all the beauty and wonder of the ruins to delve in damp, dark holes, where at most we proposed to find a few broken pieces of pottery, a few fragments of bone or chips of ?int upon which the visitor at a museum might scarcely bestow a glance.
