Excerpt from Memoirs of the Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard University, Vol. 2: No. 1, Researches in the Central Portion of the Usumatsintla Valley, Report of Explorations for the Museum, 1898-1900 This report was written in German by Mr. Maler, and has been trans lated into English by Miss Selma Wesselhoeft, assisted by Miss A. M. Parker. Every effort has been made to secure an accurate translation and to keep the decisive style of the author; while the Editor has respected the fact that the author could not revise the proofs. Mr. Maler is therefore responsible for the Opinions expressed and the statements made, as well as for the spelling of proper names, in which he sometimes differs from the generally accepted orthography.
