Archaeological studies among the ancient cities of Mexico
An 1895 archaeological report by William Henry Holmes, published in Chicago by the Field Columbian Museum, documenting excavated ruins of ancient Mexican cities for a scholarly readership. The pictures are line drawings of architecture: a long cross-section of a stone-walled chamber, a plan with lettered rooms, and a reconstructed stepped temple with carved panels and tall battered walls, offering a designer clean architectural linework, hatched stone textures and labelled plan diagrams.
