Lost World of the Maya
The Maya - their soaring pyramids, monumental cities and mythical mastery of astronomy and mathematics have captured our imaginations and spurred generations of explorers into the jungles of Central America on a quest to understand them. QUEST FOR THE LOST MAYA explores archaeological evidence of a previously unknown Mayan society based in the hidden depths of the Yucatan Peninsula of southern Mexico. The film 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.
