Eugène Boban began life in humble circumstances in Paris, traveled to the California Gold Rush, and later became a recognized authority on pre-Columbian cultures. He also invented an entire category of archaeological artifact: the Aztec crystal skull. By his own admission, he successfully “palmed off” a number of these crystal skulls on the curators of Europe’s leading museums. How could that happen, and who was this man? Detailed are the travels, self-education, and archaeological explorations of Eugène Boban; this book also explores the circumstances that allowed him to sell fakes to museums that would remain undetected for over a century.

This is the next on the series of adventures of three young archeologists called the Archeo's. Sam, Yoder and Mike are the grandsons of Dr. James Michaels, an internationally renowned archeologist. He has taken them with him since they were toddlers on what he calls his expeditions in time. The Archeo's, having finished their junior year in high school, have been spending the summer with their grandparents in their home on the edge of the great northwest wilderness. At the outset of the summer they made one of the greatest archeological finds of all time. They called it the Valley of the Dwellers. Soon after that they accompanied their grandfather in the search for Chi Chaco, the ancient city of the Anasazi. That search was fraught with danger as they were pursued and nearly captured by the Askooks, a notorious ring of ancient artifact thieves. It was from that expedition they learned of the existence of several crystal skulls that had ominous reputations. Through Sam's research they discovered there was a crystal skull said to be more powerful than any yet found that Sam thought might possibly be hidden somewhere in the Valley of the Dwellers. What they discover will change their lives forever.
