Breaking the Maya Code

Inspired by archaeologist Michael Coe's

best-selling book, this fascinating documentary traces the extraordinary efforts to decode a writing system that has mystified historians for centuries: the hieroglyphic script of the ancient Mayans. Eleven years in the making, David Lebrun's film journeys from one end of the world to the other to explore the epic story behind one of the greatest scientific discoveries of the 20th century.

2008 NR 116 minutes

We saw it awhile ago when we still had TV. Glad I got to see it again.

This subject fascinates me, and while I know the gist, I yearn for details. (My dial-up won't permit me to watch the video.

DAMN!! Well to give you the gist over the years several individuals have cracked parts of the code and for the most part they have been able to correlate the modern day spoken language with the hieroglyphs of the past!
