What reading level is Archology of Ohio book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
63 Many other carvings of images and faces have been col lected, but none of them have any special significance, except a single specimen to be hei-eafter described. They do not exhibit that degree of artistic skill which would make them reliable evidence of race or tribal characteristics. They show how much work, with poor tools, was expended in the production of images, having no form or comeliness to make them worthy of admiration, but which were doubtless esteemed by the artists and their c...ontemporaries as remark able triumphs of artistic skill.
Mr. Peter Neff, of Gambier, has a mask-like face, carved in sandstone, which was plowed up in a field in Jackson township, Coshocton County, in 1851. It measures 3Jx2f inches, not including two projections or blunt horns rising on each side of the top of the head. It is of especial interest from its close resemblance to similar faces worn on the breast of priest-like personages represented on Central American sculptures, of which illustrations are given by Bancroft in his "Native Races of the Pacific States.
