Students are embedded in Belize culture as they learn archaeological field methods and research strategies. In the past, students have excavated ancient Maya ruins at Cahal Pech, where they made 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. Future field schools will focus on uncovering Belize's recent history at the site of its first capital, St. George's Caye.
