The Maya Civilization has baffled historians for centuries with its unprecedented prowess in Math, Astronomy, and Engineering.

How were these ancient people able to build such structure, and what was their purpose? With the development and implication of new technologies (Lidar system and electrical resistivity tomography), we will try to answer the questions raised by these megastructures of stone.
