I can't wait to hear more about the archaeological findings that they are sure to uncover. I think modern archaeologists underestimate the degree of knowledge achieved by earlier civilizations and hopefully they will discover some interesting artifacts that will lead them to a more complete understanding of their knowledge and life.

Wasn't it just recently that there was another big find of a Mayan site when an archeologist hiked into an area in Guatamela, found nothing, was leaning back on *something*--and that *something* turned out to be part of a ancient Mayan wall.

My only regret when we were camping around the Yucatan and southern Mexico is that we didn't have enough time (like another three months) to go into Guatamela to see more Mayan ruins.
