Caves of Yucatan and Guatemala
Arnold Meyers

Abstract

Our knowledge of caverns in the tropical regions of the Americas is very limited. What little data are available indicate that in size and number the tropical caves probably exceed those known in the temperate areas. Arnold Meyers of Trenton, Ontario has visited the caverns of Yucatan and Guatemala as a journalist with interests in geography and archeology. In his paper he presents an interesting introduction to the potentials of speleology in Latin America as well as an engaging narrative of his journeys.
