Movie Meet-UpPatriot Hills Center - Board Room Breaking the Maya CodeSaturday, Feb. 7th, 2 pm - 4 pmFor almost 2000 years, the ancient Maya of Central America recorded their history and ideas in an intricate and beautiful hieroglyphic script. Then, in the 16th century, Spanish invaders burned their books and ruthlessly extinguished hieroglyphic literacy. By the 18th century, when stone inscriptions were discovered buried in the jungles of Central America, no one on earth could read them. BREAKING THE MAYA CODE is the 200-year quest to decipher the hieroglyphs of the Ancient Maya. [2007, 1hr 56min]
