Visit the sculpture museum as well as the village archaeology museums of the Maya ruins of Copan, Honduras, Central America.

Copan Bat maya archaeology

The bat was the symbol for Copan. This monumental portrait and most of the other sculptures in the Copan museum were reassembled by Barbara Fash in years of meticulous analysis of these statues.

These photographs were all taken with the specific permission of the Director General of IHAH with the considerable local assistance of Professor Oscar Cruz, IHAH representative for Copan Ruinas.

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.
