Extract

In the April, 1956, issue of American Antiquity (Vol. 21, No. 4, pp. 420–1) Ronald L. Ives discusses the possible beginnings of the theory of the Asiatic origins of the American Indian. In this connection he cites the recent translation of the Description of the Province of Sonora by Father Ignaz Pfefferkorn, S. J., published originally in German in 1794–95.
