Excerpt from Prehistoric Races of the United States of America It will thus be apparent that I enter upon this work, not as a mere compiler, but as an original observer. Most of the illustrations have been derived from materials now for the first time brought together. As this volume is intended only as a Compendium of our Antiquities, to be restricted to a given number of pages, I have been compelled for the most part to represent groups by a single illustration, and on a greatly reduced scale, and to discuss many questions relating to our Ethnology in a summary, and in what some may consider a superficial, manner.
