The Association for Mexican Cave Studies has received a potential AMCS
archaeology bulletin from prominent Mexican caver Carlos Lazcano. The
title is "REGRESO AL MUNDO OLVIDADO: descubrimiento de antiguos
pueblos de la cultura Casas Grandes en la Sierra Madre Occidental."
Included are maps and descriptions of quite a few shelter caves. All
the text except a couple of short forewords is in Spanish, and Carlos
has been unable to find a translator. Ideally, the AMCS would like to
publish it with parallel Spanish and English texts.
The whole thing is about 32,000 words, not a trivial project and not
one to be undertaken by a student who needs frequent recourse to a
Spanish/English dictionary. But it looks pretty straightforward. For
someone good in both languages, the limiting factor would be just
having to type it all. It could be divided among several translators.
Anyone possibly interested in undertaking (part of) such a project,
please contact me.
