What reading level is Notes Upon the Ethnography of Southern Mexico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CXII, CXVIb, also Fig. 53.) Two kinds of nets are made, conical cast nets and seines. Cast nets are widely used in Mexico — e.g. at the barranca near Guadalajara, at Tehuantepec, among the Juaves, among the Totanacos in Puebla, and elsewhere. Though constantly fishing and canoeing the Juaves are bad watermen. Few of them swim; the canoes they make are ugly and clumsy dug-outs made from great logs. They are slope pointed in front and almost squared or slope squared at the other end : they are fl...at bottomed and are rather neatly hollowed out; the walls are qiiite thin and are more widely separated midway of their height than at the bottom or upper edge. Some have three pairs of loops at intervals along the upper edge for clumsy oars, but the usual mode of propulsion is poling. The fishermen usually carry a spear, with a pole shaft and a long, square-sectioned, iron point. This is used chiefly in keeping alligators from attack.
The Juaves catch many fish and enormous quantities of shrimps.
