Grasp In Search Of Quetzalcoatl: The Mysterious Heritage Of South American Civilization Curated By Pierre Honoré Depicted In Electronic Format

bad. Interesting read, but most of his conclusions were very loosely based, He was making some pretty extravagant claims about the origin of some of these civilizations based on very mild similarities in artwork and other cultural elements, I was understanding throughout the book that the author refused to believe that natives of the New World were capable of developing anything complex on their own i, e. without the help of Asians or Europeans, Also, at least half of the book is just a retelling of the Spanish conquests, which we've all heard a million times and was not what I was hoping to spend my time reading about in this book.
Interesting theories that are thought provoking, however, and seem to match nicely with other "American Heritage" theories I've read about from other parts of the New World, though this book predates Berry Fell's "America B.
C. " and others like it. Prehistoric Native American legends tell of white men with beards landing on the shores of the New World, bringing knowledge of science, engineering, and laws, and more, In the legends, they arrived in huge ships with swan wings, and the strange fairskinned,

blueeyed, men wore black gowns, In the Yucatan jungle, elders call these legendary men Quetzalcoatl, Viracocha, Kukulkan, and other ancient men, And who were these men Where did they come from, and when did they arrive These are the questions Pierre Honoré poses and answers in for his absorbing quest into the mysterious heritage of South and Central American civilization.
In part an account of the Indian civilizations of Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Mexico, Yucatan and Honduras, and in part an absorbing piece of historical detection, Honoré maintains that the legendary gods of the Indians once existed in reality, and suggests a solution to the mystery of who they were.
