Guatemala
We’re staying with the Maya once again – this time in Guatemala – as archaeologists unearth incredibly beautiful, amazingly preserved, and historically and intellectually valuable stela and panels from a site called El Achiotal, near the Mexican border.
One stela talks about a Maya king and the site dates to the 5th Century AD. These artefacts are extremely valuable because very little is known about Maya history during this time period.
