Lost World of the Maya (full episode)
Mayan Calendar, Maya-Aztec plaque, Mexico
(National Geographic, Dec. 30, 2020) The Maya -- their soaring American pyramids, monumental ancient cities, and mythical mastery of astronomy and mathematics -- have captured the world's imagination and spurred generations of explorers into the jungles of Central America on a quest to understand them. Lost World of the Maya surveys their dramatic rise to prominence in the "pre-classic era" of the Maya as well as new evidence of the collapse of their civilization in the 800-900's AD.
