Paperback. Condition: 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.
