Maya Masterpiece

You’ve probably read about the recent discovery of the earliest known example of Maya art near San Bartolo, Guatemala. But now, Dave Pentecost, one of the team who worked on documenting the painting, has published a video of the site on his blog. Amazing stuff. Although every time I see the image of HunahPu sticking a six-foot spear through his own penis as a blood sacrifice, I want to cross my legs, hard.

 

P.S. The downside of the video is the (not so) background music. Why do people insist on adding inappropriate music to videos? Admittedly, it’s not as bad as the Boar Semen Collection Music Video disaster I mentioned a couple of days ago. But still… Less is more, people!
