"This book divides the 3,000 year time span into seven sections providing a detailed vignette of events, explorers, and people. Among topics covered are shamanistic rites; the Preclassic megacity of El Mirador and its neighbor Nakbe; the creation myth of the Hero Twins and its role organizing Maya society; and power struggles between the cities Tikal and Calakmul"--Provided by publisher.
