Ancient Maya Treasure Found by Accident: The Uncovering of Valeriana
Join host Andrew Colón as he dives into the incredible story of Valeriana, an ancient Maya city discovered by accident in the dense jungles of Campeche, Mexico. This city, hidden for centuries and rivaling the legendary Calakmul, reveals over 6,000 structures that may have housed up to 50,000 people.
What makes this discovery even more fascinating? It was made not by excavation but through cutting-edge LIDAR technology, which mapped the city's expanse without disturbing a single leaf. Follow along as we explore how a PhD student at Tulane University stumbled upon this forgotten city during a routine data search, turning an environmental survey into one of the greatest Maya findings in recent years.
Discover why Valeriana matters for understanding the true scale and interconnectedness of Maya civilization, and learn about the technology reshaping archaeology and conservation efforts in Mexico.
This episode of The Mysteries of Latin America will captivate history buffs, archaeology enthusiasts, and anyone with a passion for untold stories. Listen now to uncover the ancient world through modern eyes and celebrate the enduring legacy of the Maya.
Tune in and learn about the power of discovery, technology, and cultural heritage that connects us all.
