The Maya are a mystery, a people who carved out a sprawling civilisation among the jungles of Latin America and yet remain shrouded in myths and legends. In this bookazine you will delve into the scriptures, science and sacrifices that defined Maya life, witness the harsh reality of the wars that crushed cities and wonder at the art these fascinating people left behind. Then it will be time to roll up your sleeves and learn to cook like a native, before washing your tamale down with a unique Maya chocolate drink. Provided you’ve appeased the gods, the secrets of their writings and worship will be revealed as you wander the ruins of crumbling temples and bone-littered tombs. Those who make it out will meet the foreigner who fought for the Maya against his own people, discover how the Spanish attempted to wipe the Maya off the map and explore the efforts of their descendants to protect their legacy.
