Picture No 10505217
Date 1926
Description Lubaantun archaeology - rapid tropical growth
Details

The dramatic effects of rapid vegetation growth on archaeological sites. The amphitheatre grand stands at the ancient Maya ruins of Lubaantun in British Honduras(today Belize) are nearly obscured entirely just 10 months on when the expedition team return in 1926. This is how 'lost' cities become lost!
