Summary: "Ancient Civilizations of Mexico and Central America" by Herbert Joseph Spinden is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work explores the ancient cultures of Mexico and Central America, offering detailed insights into their arts, beliefs, and social structures, with a special focus on the timeline of pre-Columbian civilizations. It delves into archaeological findings and the contributions of various scientific disciplines to understand these ancient societies. At the start of the book, the author introduces the concept of ancient civilizations in the region and states the challenges of defining geographical boundaries between Mexico and Central America.
