EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1877, captures Alice Dixson Le Plongeon, an intrepid and trailblazing archaeologist, as she examines ancient ruins in Mexico. The oval image finds Alice sitting on the ground, surrounded by the rich history and mystery of the land. Her tired yet determined expression speaks volumes about the arduous journey she undertook to uncover the secrets of the past. Alice Le Plongeon, born in 1837 in New York, was a pioneering figure in the field of archaeology, particularly in the study of Mayan civilization. She and her husband, Augustus Le Plongeon, were among the first to explore the ruins of Chichen Itza and other Mayan sites in the late 19th century. Alice's long, ringlet curls, framing her face, contrast sharply with the rugged terrain and ancient stones behind her. Despite facing numerous challenges and skepticism from her male-dominated field, Alice persevered, making significant contributions to the understanding of Mayan culture and history. Her groundbreaking theories, including the belief that the Mayans were the builders of the Egyptian pyramids, were controversial in her time but have since been reevaluated by modern scholars. This photograph is a testament to Alice Le Plongeon's unwavering dedication and passion for archaeology, offering a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who defied the odds and left an indelible mark on history.
