Summary: "Nicaraguan Antiquities" by Carl Bovallius is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the archaeological findings from Nicaragua, specifically highlighting the statues, rock carvings, and ceramic artifacts from the pre-colonial and pre-Hispanic periods that were studied and cataloged during the author's research in Central America. The publication aims to fill the gaps in knowledge regarding the ancient cultures of this region. The opening of the book introduces Bovallius's experiences and findings during his two-year stay in Nicaragua, emphasizing the rich archaeological landscape he encountered. He mentions the lack of previous documentation about Nicaraguan antiquities, which served as a motivator for his work. The text details various tribes that inhabited Nicaragua before Spanish colonization and presents a preliminary analysis of the artifacts he excavated, including stone statues and ceramic objects, from locations such as the islands of Zapatera and Ometepec. Through this research, the author aims to unveil the cultural and artistic depth of Nicaragua’s ancient civilizations, setting the stage for more detailed discussions and illustrations of the collected antiquities.
