Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Archeological and Historical Investigations in Samanà Dominican Republic The northeastern portion of the Dominican Republic, comprising the peninsula and bay of Samana, with its many islets, has long been known as a region rich in deposits left by its pre-Columbian inhabitants. On the south shore of Samana Bay, which deeply indents this coast of the island, William M. Gabb explored some caves in 1869-1871 and found them to contain very extensive kitchen middens. Pottery and bones collected by him have been in the National Museum since 1872. Among these bones were found, early in 1916, by Gerrit S. Miller, Jr., of the National Museum, some jaws of a rodent supposed at that time to be extinct. Stimulated by this discovery, Dr. William L. Abbott visited the caves later in the same year. He obtained material of great interest and reported that large accumulations of shells, bones, and pottery remained to be examined. Doctor Abbott´s earliest expedition to Santo Domingo was in 1883 and repeated visits were made by him since that time.
