Book Description:

In ancient Maya cities, ""E Groups"" are sets of buildings aligned with the movements of the sun. This volume presents new archaeological data to reveal that E Groups were constructed earlier than previously thought - in fact, they are the earliest identifiable architectural plan at many Maya settlements.
