View of a large stone carving at the ancient Maya site of Quirigua located near the banks of the Motagua river in the department of Izabal, Guatemala. The photograph shows the west side of a carved stone stela known by archaeologists as Stela C, as it was first described by Alfred Maudslay in his seminal publication of the Quirigua site in his multi-volume Archaeology (1889-1902). More recent scholarship dates the stela (also known as Monument 3) to 9.17.5.0.0 (Maya calendar), or A.D. 775 in the standard Western (Gregorian) calendar. The monument was created during the later part of the sixty-year reign of K'ak' Tiliw Chan Yopaat and marked the close of an era in the Maya calendar. It was one of a number of stelae and zoomorphs erected at Quirigua as part of a complex building programme which took place at the height of the city-state's power during the Late Classic period, and whose primary aim was to legitimate and reinforce the power of the ruler.Due to the nature of these images, prints will reproduce any signs of age, wear or damage that occurred before they were archived by the Pitt Rivers Museum.

Great book and very useful tool to have
Format: Paperback
I had the older edition and lived it, but someone at my last job *borrowed* it and I never saw it again. This edition sends even better than the last, and I have that one five stars. Great pictures and the number of species covered means it's good in at least all states I've worked in.

Simply unputdownable
Format: Kindle
B N William’s field guide is fascinating. The book uncovers the bizarre reality beneath the polished propaganda of the Second World War, exploring the wonderfully weird truths where the line between brilliant innovation and sheer insanity vanishes completely. Every unusual piece of information has been verified using official declassified archives. I loved the story of Wojtek, a Syrian brown bear, who became a beloved and legendary figure, known for his unique story as an enlisted soldier. Read many more such stories and episodes in this book. You will enjoy them thoroughly.

Wonderful reading
Format: Paperback
It is a pleasure to “listen” to MLK Jr, and his description of the Montgomery boycott, mostly after reading the newest biography King, a life. Both books are highly recommended.
