A huge Maya city has been discovered centuries after it disappeared under jungle canopy in Mexico.
Archaeologists found pyramids, sports fields, causeways connecting districts and amphitheatres in the southeastern state of Campeche.
They uncovered the hidden complex - which they have called Valeriana - using Lidar, a type of laser survey that maps structures buried under vegetation.
They believe it is second in density only to Calakmul, thought to be the largest Maya site in ancient Latin America.
The team discovered three sites in total, in a survey area the size of Scotland’s capital Edinburgh, “by accident” when one archaeologist browsed data on the internet.
Love it when this happens to me
Speak for yourself. I used satellite imagery to uncover the final resting place of Noah’s Ark on Mt. Ararat, and the global atheist cabal is suppressing it.
We’ve all been there, haven’t we?
It binds us all
Giggity
Thats MY word?!!
