American writer and diplomat John Lloyd Stephens (1805–52) was effectively the founder of Mesoamerican archaeology. He had earlier made a two-year journey through the Near East, publishing an expanded account in 1838. Volume 1 begins with Stephens' arrival at Alexandria in Egypt, and ends with a visit to Sinai.
