Excerpt from Archaeological Studies Among the Ancient Cities of Mexico In December, 1894, a number of gentlemen, representing different branches of scientific research, were invited by Mr. A. V. Armour to accompany him in his steam yacht Ituna on a voyage to Mexico. Three months were spent in that most interesting country, mainly in the states of Yucatan, Chiapas and Oaxaca.
