Maya Cities, Sacred Caves
a guide to the Maya sites of Belize
Jaime Awe, 2005

This beautiful book is much more than a guide to ten of Belize's amazing Maya sites. The informative introduction to the Maya and their neighbors in the region is brought to life by Dr. Jaime Awe, the director of Belize's Institute of Archaeology. He provides fascinating descriptions along with full colour photographs and up to date maps of each site including Santa Rita, Cerros, Lamanai, Altun Ha, Caracol, Cahal Pech, El Pilar, Xunantunich, Nim Li Punit and Lubaantun plus three cave sites: Barton Creek, Actun Tunichil Muknal and Che Chem Ha. The final chapters give an in depth chronology of Maya History and Development from 15,000 B.C. to the Spanish conquest.
