A Tale of Two Pyramids

We present Douglas A. Tilden, former Board member of the Archaeological Institute of America, and now an Independent Researcher as well as benefactor for our educational initiative. Tilden discusses with us his journey from a retired CEO of a major shipping company to a published field archaeologist fulfilling a life-long dream. He will also share his experiences and observations gained from over ten years of work with the Maya civilization in Belize: what made it so distinctive and his views on what caused the demise of this once flourishing civilization.
