This was an opportunity not just to learn about the Maya culture but to practice research skills. It was fun (and a little exhausting) and such a gorgeous day that we all hung out on the verandah afterwards and relaxed.

Dig Preparation
We are preparing for our next Dig experience which will take place early May. We have already visited the University of Pennsylvania to see the Maya 2012 exhibit, had a special Maya history tour of the American Museum of Natural History with archaeologist Geof Pursell and watched a bunch of documentaries. To complete our dig preparation I wanted to make a giant timeline with the kids depicting the time periods and make a large topographical map of the area.
