Şotlandiyada jurnalist kimi karyeraya başladıqdan sonra 1906-cı ildə Spens folklor və mifologiyaya böyük maraq göstərməyə başlamışdır. O, bir kitabda brit ayinlərini və ənənələrini təsvir etmişdir. Spens kitabda qədim britonların Şimali Afrikadan köçmüş, ehtimal ki, bərbər və ya bask mənşəli insanlardan törədiyini irəli sürmüşdür. Bundan sonra Spens əsasən Meksika və Mərkəzi Amerika mifologiyasına diqqət yetirmişdir.

- ↑ The reviewer O.R. in The Geographical Journal 81.2 (February 1933:181-182) found Spence's evidences well marshalled and noted that biological and geological evidences were set aside as conflicting with Spence's view that a fair-complexioned race "remarkable chiefly for their arcane knowledge and their prowess as builders" inhabited now-sunken lands of the Pacific; the reviewer notes Spence's lack of bibliography and casual references to books whose titles he rarely offers.
