Maya Field Workshops takes curious travelers to the heart of the Maya world
Our March 2023 Focus:
Copan and Peten
Our March experience will start in Copan, Honduras and end in the Peten region of Guatemala.
Our trip dates are March 6 - 13, 2023. Our trip takes us first to to Copan and Quirigua, and then up into the eastern Peten sites of Ucanal, Nakum and Yaxha. Some of these are rarely visited by tourists. The entire week will will focus on studying two major political conflicts ofLate Classic history, one between Copan / Quirigua and another focused on the court of Yaxha. We will be learning and discussing history, hieroglyphs, archaeology and art, all leading up to the so-called Maya Collapse of the ninth century.
