Dr Diane Davies, the only Maya archaeologist in the UK, spent the morning in Ash Class. She told us all about her adventures excavating Maya sites in Guatemala and Mexico. She also brought with her many genuine Maya artefacts which we were allowed to handle and investigate. We ground cacao beans and tried the bitter chocolate inside. What an amazing morning with a real Maya expert. We learnt so much about the Maya civilisation.
