| Summary | "The Knickerbocker, Vol. 10, No. 4, October 1837" by Various is a periodical publication that offers a glimpse into early 19th-century American literature and thought. The content likely spans various subjects, but the opening portion delves into the themes of American antiquities and the mysterious histories of ancient civilizations that populated the continent before European discovery, such as the Tultiques and their exceptional artistic and architectural achievements. The opening of this volume begins with a thoughtful exploration of America's ancient cities and cultures, inviting the reader to ponder the identities and legacies of the original inhabitants. It critiques the commonly held belief that Columbus was the sole discoverer of America and emphasizes the advanced knowledge and culture that existed among the native populations. Throughout this discourse, the author raises questions about the enduring presence of these ancient civilizations and their influences on contemporary understandings of history. The passage sets the stage for an intriguing exploration of antiquity, urging readers to reconsider their perceptions of discovery and civilization in the Americas.
