  • To put it in a nutshell, the Central and South American high cultures of antiquity were entirely worthy of comparison with what the Old World had achieved by the time of the Han, the Gupta, and the Hellenistic age.

But it was real, and the Amerindian achievements deserve all our sympathy and praise.

    Joseph Needham, Gwei-Djen Lu (1985). “Trans-Pacific Echoes and Resonances: Listening Once Again”, p.64, World Scientific
