PBS Specials - Quest for the Lost Maya

Seizoen: 2011 - Aflevering: 7 / 277 - Eerst uitgezonden: 28 maart 2012 - Episode ID: 638349

Filmed in the summer of 2011 at Kaxil Kiuic Biocultural Reserve in Yucatán, National Geographic Television’s Quest for the Lost Maya addresses new findings about the Maya civilization. The Maya's soaring pyramids, monumental cities, and mastery of astronomy and mathematics have spurred generations of explorers into the jungles of Central America on a quest to understand them. In the past decade, researchers working in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula have made a series of startling discoveries that reveal a gaping hole in our understanding of the Maya. What we thought we knew about the Maya could suddenly turn out to be just half the story.
