With expert Dr. Bruce Love!
YUCATAN: LAND OF THE ANCIENT MAYA

February 9-17, 2008

With Yucatan expert Dr. Bruce Love, please join us as we explore the ancient Maya heritage of the Yucatan.

See 3,000 years of history come alive among pyramids, temples, stone pathways, and carved stelae as we learn about the ancient Maya civilization, one of the most advanced civilizations ever to emerge in the Western Hemisphere.

The extraordinary Maya people developed the immense stone cities of Chichen Itza, Kabah, Uxmal, Tulum, Coba, Dzibilchaltun, Izamal, and other sites which we will see, plus an accurate calendar, astronomic observatories, irrigated agriculture, and a highly accurate language based on detailed glyphs.

A noted Yucatan expert, Dr. Love has been exploring the Yucatan since 1971, and has published widely on Maya archaeology and cultural anthropology, including the ancient hieroglyphic writing and contemporary Maya religion and rituals. He looks forward to sharing the fascinating world of the Yucatan with you this winter.

$2,995 + air.
