Mexico has countless archaeological sites from the many civilizations that predate the arrival of the Spanish. And new discoveries are constantly being made. This photo on the front page of a newspaper caught my eye as I passed a newsstand along the street.
At the Mayan city of Chichén Itzá in the state of Yucatán, archaeologists found this round stone. It served as a marker on the ball court. Around the edge are Mayan hieroglyphs, and in the center are the figures of two ball players.
