Carved stone portrait of a monkey-like creature. This particular arrangement of the eyes and mouth is known as an Ahau. The nose mimics a leaf-nosed bat and a stylized perforator. If you would like to learn what all this means in plain English, why not join Professor Hellmuth at Copan for one of his field trips to Honduras. Send us an e-mail to ask when the next seminar is. FLAAR Maya archaeology excursions to exciting destinations in Central America are open to the general public. These enriching cultural programs are a great way to have an educational vacation in an exotic foreign country. The Copan village has comfortable hotels and a wonderful climate. People are friendly and welcome visitors from around the world. If you prefer German, we also offer private archaeology courses in this language. Otherwise, language of instruction is English. e-mail:ReaderService@FLAAR.org |

To get these photographs FLAAR sent a photography crew to Honduras with a complete portable studio. With a Linhof 4x5, Wisner 4x5, several Hasselblads, Leicas, and a complete Dicomed-Better Light digital scanning camera, Nicholas Hellmuth and Andrea David did exhaustive photography in both museums.
This photography was aided in all aspects by IHAH and Professor Oscar Cruz. We appreciate the assistance of the Hotel Marina for providing a courtesy room in their annex.
