knives and
weapons (at page 95, &c., and in the Appendix) are
more ample than any previously given.

3. The treatment of the Mexican Numerals (at page 108)
is partly new.

4. The proofs of the highly probable sophistication of
the document in the Library at Paris, relative to
Mexican eclipses, have not previously been advanced
(see Appendix).

5. The notices of objects of Mexican art, &c., in the
chapter on Antiquities, and elsewhere (including
the Appendix), are for the most part new to the
public.

6. The remarks on the connection between pure Mexican
art and that of Central America, in the chapter on
Xochicalco, are in great part new.

7. The singular native bridge at Tezcuco (page 153) is
another novelty.
