Students are embedded in Belize culture as they learn archaeological field methods and research strategies. They excavate ancient Maya ruins at Cahal Pech, where they make significant discoveries that improve our knowledge of the Maya's history. Students recently uncovered one of the earliest Maya burials on record, dating from approximately 1000 B.C., and artifacts uncovered by students are on display in the Belize National Museum.
