Excerpt from Major Powell's Inquiry: "Whence Came the American Indians?": An Answer; A Study in Comparative Ethnology
It is impossible in a brief article to compare everything which may be akin in Asia and America it is necessary to limit the field. This may be done by comparing either the wild tribes or the semi-civilized nations, and as the latter will afford the best test, further comparisons herein will be made between the Chi nese type and the equally civilized aztec-mayan nations.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes that the American Indian civilization is an offshoot of an Asian stock, specifically the Mongolian civilization. The author uses a comparative approach to establish this connection by analyzing the arts, languages, institutions, and mythology of both civilizations. The book delves into the similarities between the Chinese and Aztec-Mayan civilizations, arguing that these similarities are too extensive to be coincidental and suggest a common origin. The author contends that the American Indian civilization is not a separate and unique entity but rather a product of Mongolian migration and influence. This book sheds light on the origins and development of American Indian civilization, offering a new perspective on the relationship between the peoples of the Americas and Asia.
