The largest exhibit of its kind in the United States, “Maya: Hidden Worlds Revealed” gives visitors an understanding of the rise and eventual decline of this majestic civilization through never-before-seen artifacts, hands-on activities, multimedia components and re-created environments.

The ruined cities of the ancient Maya have captured our imaginations since news of their discovery in the jungles of Central America in the mid-19th century. Research has revealed a culture with a sophisticated worldview that, during its Classic period (250 – 900 AD), rivaled any European civilization.

The Maya built elaborate cities without modern machinery or use of the wheel, communicated using one of the world's first written languages, measured time using complicated calendar systems, and had an advanced understanding of astronomy and agriculture.

At the Museum of Science, 1 Science Park, Boston; 617-723-2500; mos.org.
