A propos de cet article

xxviii, [4: contents], 576 p.; 23 cm. Signature: A. Barnes (Albert Barnes, the commentator) on ffep and title-page. `The historian Hornius would incline to persuade us, that the word Manca or Mancu, recorded in the traditional books of the ancient Peruvians, has reference to Manchew, the general name of the race of Tartars, and that Masatecae, one of the four nations of New Spain, and Massachusetae, a colony of New England, and the ancient Massagetae, are originally the same.

In like manner, they named the three images of Chuquilla, which is the god that rules the region of the air."--But, according to this writer, they go a step farther than the acknowledgment of a mere triad of deity, and worship a direct trinity in unity: for "in Cuquisaco there is a certain oratory where they worship a great idol,whom they call Tanga-tanga, which signifies one in three, and three in one." Of these three triads, the first very much resembles the Triplasios Mithras, or threefold power of God in the sun.or if the reader chooses rather to understand it physically, in respect to the etherial element, this American Eendra may be the Jupiter Tonans, Jupiter Serenus, and Jupiter Pluvius.' (p. 548-50) Worn green boards,front cover detached, sewing broken, Untrimmed.…
