nstitution Report for 1960 (Washington, D. C., 1961) 和H. E. Driver, ed., The Americas on the Eve of Discovery (Englewood Cliffs, N. J., 1964), 是较好的介绍美洲印第安人的著作。G. H. S.Bushnell, Peru, rev. ed. (New York, 1963); J. Eric S. Thompson, The Rise and Fall of Maya Civilization (Norman, Okla., 1954); G. C. Valliant, The Aztecs of Mexico (Penguin, 1950); 和Friderich Katz, The Ancient American Civilizations (New York, 1972), 也是非常有用的。关于有争议的哥伦布之前与新大陆的跨太平洋联系问题,参见M. W. Smith为《美洲考古》Memoir No. 9 (1953) 撰写的Asia and North America: Trans-Pacific Contacts, Society, 和Andrew Sharp, Ancient Voyagers in the Pacific (Wellington, N. Z., 1956).
