SUMMARY:Jungle Kingdoms of the Ancient Maya
DESCRIPTION:This tropical adventure provides the best-paced itinerary available to thoroughly explore ancient Maya sites in the lush jungles of Mexico\, Guatemala\, and Honduras. Maya art and architecture will “come alive” as you encounter enormous stelae (carved monoliths)\, painted frescoes\, stucco friezes\, carved lintels\, and huge temple-pyramids that soar above the rainforest. Explore\, in-depth\, the sites of Palenque\, Bonampak\, Yaxchilán\, Tikal\, Yaxhá\, Copán\, and Quiriguá (four are UNESCO World Heritage Sites); with free time to go bird watching or simply relax\, reflect\, and enjoy our comfortable hotels and remote jungle lodges. Maximum of just 12 guests. \nHighlights include: \n• Visit La Venta Park to see a magnificent outdoor collection of stone sculpture that originally came from the Olmec site of La Venta.\n• Explore Palenque’s many exquisite examples of 7th- and 8th-century Maya architecture\, including the Temple of the Inscriptions\, Palace\, Temples of the Cross Group\, and much more..\n• Journey upriver and cross over into the heart of Guatemala\, to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Tikal.\n• Join in on the optional\, pre-dawn hike up the steep steps of Tikal’s Temple IV—the site’s tallest pyramid at 230 feet\, and the largest Maya shrine built in the 8th century.\n• Tour the Sepulturas Group\, located a few miles from the site of Copán\, which also housed a residential area for non-Maya (perhaps foreign merchants) around A.D. 800. \nTravel and learn with Dr. Ben Thomas who after several years of fieldwork in the jungles and swamps of Belize and Guatemala has become a specialist in Mayan archaeology with specific interests in Ancient Maya settlements and architecture. He has travelled extensively throughout Mexico\, Guatemala\, and Belize.

SUMMARY:Unmarked Grave Search of Dedan Kimathi Utilizing Archaeological Geophysical Techniques
DESCRIPTION:The “Unmarked Grave Search of Dedan Kimathi Utilizing Archaeological Geophysical Techniques” workshop\, set to take place at the prestigious Louise Leakey Auditorium on February 29th\, 2024\, is a groundbreaking event aimed at leveraging advanced geophysical methods to uncover the final resting place of one of Kenya’s most revered freedom fighters\, Field Marshal Dedan Kimathi. \nThis workshop represents a collaborative effort between leading experts in the fields of geophysics and archaeology\, united in their quest to shed light on this historical mystery. Through a combination of theoretical discussions\, practical demonstrations\, and hands-on exercises\, participants will delve into the intricacies of archaeological geophysical techniques and their application in locating unmarked graves. \nThe significance of this endeavor cannot be overstated. Field Marshal Dedan Kimathi played a pivotal role in Kenya’s struggle for independence\, symbolizing the resilience and determination of the Kenyan people in the face of oppression. Yet\, the exact whereabouts of his grave remain unknown\, leaving an important chapter of Kenya’s history shrouded in uncertainty. \nBy harnessing the power of cutting-edge geophysical technologies such as ground-penetrating radar\, electromagnetic surveys\, and resistivity imaging\, participants will embark on a journey to unravel this mystery and honor the legacy of Dedan Kimathi. Under the guidance of seasoned experts\, attendees will learn how these techniques can penetrate beneath the earth’s surface\, revealing hidden structures and anomalies that may indicate the presence of a gravesite. \nMoreover\, this workshop serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of collaboration and innovation within the scientific community. By bringing together professionals from diverse backgrounds\, it fosters an environment of interdisciplinary exchange and collective problem-solving. Through shared knowledge and expertise\, participants will explore new avenues for advancing the field of archaeological geophysics while paying homage to Kenya’s rich cultural heritage. \nAs participants engage in lively discussions and hands-on activities\, they will gain valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities inherent in the search for unmarked graves. Ultimately\, the “Unmarked Grave Search of Dedan Kimathi Utilizing Archaeological Geophysical Techniques” workshop represents a significant step forward in the quest to uncover the truth behind this historical enigma and ensure that the legacy of Field Marshal Dedan Kimathi endures for generations to come.
