Sacred Mayan site discovered
An ancient sacred island is home to a Mayan site that archeologists estimate to date to around 250 A.D. The island is now submerged in a Guatemalan lake and is resting some 50 feet below the water's surface. The site was only discovered 12 years ago by a diver. So far, 6 ceremonial monuments and 4 altars have been found along with the ruins of small houses crammed full of religious items confirming its significance.
