New Mayan Gods
A gigantic stone carving uncovered in Guatemala in 2013 gave archaeologists a new perspective on the Mayan culture. This massive facade featured carvings of entirely new gods that archaeologists had never seen before. In addition, it also contained new information about how power transferred from particular groups of Mayans to others as new kings took over control. But perhaps the most remarkable aspect of the carving was its condition: the wall even contained some traces of its original colorful paint.
