Ever since the discovery of the ruins of Maya cities in the Central American jungle, men have speculated about this stone-age people who developed a brilliant civilization - one which had already degenerated and decayed by the time Spain entered the New World. The Maya were expert in astronomy, mathematics and hieroglyphic writing. They possessed a sophisticated political and social organization and their cultrue produced great art and architecture. This book looks at the Mayan civilization, the Maya's daily life and astonishing achievements.
