The calendar by Jun Singson Jr. / 500px
La Piedra del Sol es un disco monolítico de basalto de olivino con inscripciones alusivas a la cosmogonía mexica y los cultos solares. Es común e incorrectamente llamada Calendario Azteca. Las interpretaciones sobre la función y el significado de este monolito son diversas entre especialistas desde su re descubrimiento en el siglo XVIII. Probablemente fue una plataforma de combate gladiatorio, involucrado probablemente en la festividad mexica Tlacaxipehualiztli. Mide 3,60 metros de diámetro

Belize City
XUNANTUNICH - (Maya for maiden of the rock )sits just inside the western border of Belize. Before reaching the entrance of this ancient city your party will board a handcranked ferry which takes you across the Mopan River. The ruins are actually located on one of the highest plateaus in the area and it is possible to climb to the top of “El Castillo”, the largest of the temples at this site. From this vantage point one gains a panoramic view of the Cayo district and nearby Guatemala.
