Abstract
COB, if only on account of its size, is one of the most important centres of culture in the Maya area of Central America. If, and when, its ruins are excavated, it is not improbable that it may prove crucial in the solution of a number of obscure problems connected with early Maya colonisation in northern Yucatan. Since its ruins were discovered in 1926 by Dr. T. W. Gannit was not then known that it had been visited by Teobert Maler in 1891 five further expeditions of the Carnegie Institu ion have been engaged in exploration and survey work on the site.
