"The ideal reference on Maya archaeology." --"Science News" Behind the ancient cities of the Maya and their abandoned artworks lie the turbulent stories of their ruling dynasties. One of the world's greatest and most powerful civilizations, the Maya experienced constant conflict in a landscape divided among numerous kingdoms.

The ancient Maya remain one of the most vibrant areas of study in world archaeology. Fresh discoveries in the field, together with the ongoing process of hieroglyphic decipherment, mean that information is constantly coming to light. This new version of the only comprehensive, kingdom-by-kingdom history of the ancient Maya brings the story fully up to date with previously unknown rulers and new glyphic readings, as well as additional information on diplomacy and warfare. 366 illustrations, 86 in color., The ancient Maya remain one of the most vibrant areas of study in world archaeology.

I was able to clean them and spruce them up a bit and now they look brand new. I still have one to fix up but you can see them below! The pictures matched the dolls exactly! No surprises. I love them! THANK YOU!!! RELIABLE SELLER! It was my pleasure doing business!
