American Egypt

American Egypt

by Channing Arnold

American Egypt is a seminal work in the field of archaeology, offering a unique perspective on the ancient civilizations of the Yucatan Peninsula. Written by English explorers Channing Arnold and Frederick Frost, the book challenges prevailing theories of the time and argues that the first architects of the Americas were Buddhist immigrants from Southeast Asia. Through their extensive exploration of the region, including uncharted areas, Arnold and Frost provide valuable insights into the cultural and architectural heritage of the Maya and other pre-Columbian societies.
