Rio Antonio del 1745 1789
Estampas de Palenque. Biblioteca del Palacio Real & Real Academia de la Historia Madrid Facsimile Manuscript report to Guatemalan Governor José EstacherÃa
16 facsimile hand written pages with diagrams and three fold out diagrams of Palenque. Folio 12 1/2" x 8 1/2" bound in velum with black label and gilt lettering to cover. Testimonio's Tabula Americae. Limited to 980 copies of which this is 169. Spanish artillery Captain Antonio del RÃo's ca. 1745-ca. 1789 discovery of tangible evidence of an amazingly rich Maya past and this printed report were the beginning of the study of this truly lost civilization. In May 1786 upon the order of the Spanish Crown Governor and Brigadier General of the Royal Audencia of Guatemala Don José EstacherÃa sent RÃo to Chiapas to investigate rumors of an ancient city near Santo Domingo del Palenque and determine the origin of its inhabitants. Rio was preceded by other visitors to Palenque the most recent being two brief forays by José Antonio Calderón a local official and Spanish architect Antonio Bernasconi whose sparse observations prompted the order for the full-scale investigation by RÃo. The Spanish captain made up for his lack of antiquarian training with his zeal hiring seventy-nine Maya locals to assault with crowbars and axes the abandoned tree-engulfed seventh-century city of Palenque. In his report RÃo describes and comments on the hieroglyphs he saw. RÃo sent his manuscript report to Guatemalan Governor José EstacherÃa and it was preserved in Madrid. Almendáriz's original drawings were recently found in a private European collection and published: Estampas de Palenque not included here Madrid: Testimonio 1993. After the end of the Napoleonic Wars the author's manuscript and Waldeck's drawings re-emerged in a still mysterious manner to be published in England. Publisher Henry Berthoud bought the manuscript from a mysterious Dr. McQuy McQueen in Jamaica at the end of April 1822. Capitalizing on public interest in American indigenous cultures as well as in Romantic ruins Berthoud published Rio's work in hopes of a popular bestseller which might otherwise have been lost.Condition:A Fine copy.

To Make Their Own Way in the World: the Enduring Legacy of the Zealy Daguerreotypes
Cambridge MA / New York NY: Peabody Museum Press / Aperture 2020. 1st edition. Hardcover. VG corners slghtly bumped. Red cloth covers white lettering. 485 pages : illustrations some color. "To Make Their Own Way in the World is a profound consideration of some of the most challenging images in the early history of photography. The fifteen daguerreotypes-made in 1850 by photographer Joseph T. Zealy portray Alfred Delia Drana Fassena Jack Jem and Renty men and women of African descent who were enslaved in South Carolina. Since 1976 when the daguerreotypes were rediscovered at Harvard University's Peabody Museum the photographs have been the subject of intense and widespread study. To Make Their Own Way in the World features essays by prominent scholars who explore topics ranging from the photographs' historical context and the "science" of race to the ways in which photography created a visual narrative of slavery and its effects. Multidisciplinary deeply collaborative and with more than two hundred illustrations including new photography by contemporary artist Carrie Mae Weems this book frames the Zealy daguerreotypes as works of urgent engagement"--<br/><br/>Contents: Foreword / Henry Louis Gates Jr. -- Preface / Jane Pickering -- Introduction / Molly Rogers -- Gallery: The Zealy daguerreotypes -- Part I.

Archaeology. Davis Asahel.
Ancient America: Including the Ruins of Central and other parts of America; the First Inhabitants of the Western Continent; and the Discovery of New England by the Northmen Five Hundred Years Before Columbus. Lecture Delivered in the First Cities and Literary Unions of the Union . . . Twenty-Fifth Edition.
Buffalo: A. M. Clapp & Co. Book and Job Printers 1852. A later version of this popular pamphlet. Somewhat soiled and a bit worn; a very good copy. Original printed tan wrappers 8.38 x 5.5 inches 16 pages. We will not say as the Athenians said of their nation that the first inhabitants of America were created when the sun was first lit up in the sky but we suppose they early reached this continent from the east." From the indefatigable lecturer on the topic of the supposed early Norse settlement of New England first published as early as 1839 as A Lecture on the Discovery of America by the Northmen Five Hundred Years before Columbus; Davis drew extensively on his own excavation of mounds in the Ohio Valley as well as other relics and ancient accounts to suggest Norse settlement of America from an early date. The Norse roots of Queen Victoria and the vigor of the Scandinavian stock are taken as given and in passing. With numerous testimonials to the interest and entertainment value of Davis's lectures.

Both volumes have unopened pages light shelf wear; else clean and sound. Text is in French. DNB: "In 1926 Philby settled in Jiddah Saudi Arabia founded a trading company Sharqieh Ltd and became a close friend and an unofficial adviser of Ibn Sa'ud. Business exploration writing and Ibn Sa'ud's councils were henceforth the pattern of his life. Commerce however was only his bread and butter: his true interest was exploration. Over the next thirty years he made a series of remarkable journeys of which the greatest was his crossing of the 'empty quarter' in 1932. On these journeys he travelled by camel and later by car. By day he collected place names temperatures compass bearings barometric pressures rocks fossils flora and fauna and ancient inscriptions. At night he wrote them up in his diaries squatting in the sand by lamplight and hiding his work from his suspicious Arab escort. These journeys and the many books articles and lectures in which he described them are a monument to his scholarship industry and endurance and won him high honour with the Royal Geographical Society the British Museum Kew Gardens and academic societies all over the world."
