Overview

Excerpt from Bibliographical Notes on Uxmal, Yucatan During their residence in Uxmal, the Le Plongeons made molds of parts of facades of some of the temples, and Charnay on his later expedition, during the years 1880 - 1882, molded sections of some Of the same structures. In 1892, Mr Thompson made molds of sections of the House of the Governor and of the Nunnery Group, which were reproduced as part of the exhibit of the Department of Anthropology under the direction Of Prof. F. \v. Putnam at'the Worlds Columbian Exposition in Chicago. These are no longer in existence, but the molds should have been preserved in Chicago, as they were the most complete repre sentations of Mayan buildings thus far produced.
