Description

The Maya didn’t just build pyramids—they rebuilt them. Over centuries, new rulers constructed larger temples directly on top of older ones to honor ancestors, mark new eras, and legitimize power. Each layer sealed history inside, turning pyramids into time capsules of dynasties and belief. #Maya #Pyramids #Archaeology #History #Ancient
