Mayans in Belize


A friend took a short holiday to Belize and visited the Mayan ruins at Lamanai. The site is along the New River which was undoubtedly used for trade and transportation of people & ideas. The city received a large number of copper objects such as rings and bells in the Post-Classic period. The various stone temples were constructed during the Classic era.


Xunantunich is another Late Classic site in Belize near the Mopan River.
These are my first cards celebrating the Mayan culture in Belize!!
