Copán Ruinas
From the V century to the IX Copán was the capital of the Mayan Population. The Preclassic period (c. 2000 BC to 250 AD) saw the establishment of the first complex societies in the Maya region, and the cultivation of the staple crops of the Maya diet, including maize, beans, squashes, and chili peppers.
The Maya civilization developed highly sophisticated artforms, and the Maya created art using both perishable and non-perishable materials, including wood, jade, obsidian, ceramics, sculpted stone monuments, stucco, and finely painted murals.

Calendar
Calendar
This calendar involved the use of a positional notation system, in which each position signified an increasing multiple of the number of days. the Maya numeral system was essentially vigesimal (i.e., base-20) and each unit of a given position represented 20 times the unit of the position which preceded it. An important exception was made for the second-order place value, which instead represented 18 × 20, or 360 days, more closely approximating the solar year than would 20 × 20 = 400 days. The cycles of the Long Count are independent of the solar year.

Epilogue
Sometimes we don’t release all the history and resources around us, most of the people lost the interest visit archeologic parks or museums. The propose of this articles its to bring a small part of the human history with material that we can see, touch and even smell the nature of each sculpture. Copán Ruins its one of the many reserve park centers which save a lot of history of this civilization how had such a big impact in different science.
