The ancient Mayans were in possession of an extraordinary wisdom, with a highly sophisticated grasp of astronomy and a mysterious ability to predict the future. Modern scientific research is only now starting to catch up and bear out the secrets encoded within the ancient Mayan tradition.

From the Back Cover:

THE WORLD WILL END IN 2012.

So said the ancient Mayan people – who were convinced we are living in the fifth, and final age of the sun. Now the mysterious beliefs of the Maya are being backed up by modern scientific research – but how did a people living more than 1,000 years ago in the jungles of Central America come to possess such extraordinary prophetic insight. Where did this super knowledge come from?

Combining the skills of a private detective with the passion and nerve of Indiana Jones, Maurice Cotterell sets out to discover the truth. His journey takes him to the Temple of Inscriptions in Palenque, to the tomb of the Mayan priest-king Lord Pacal. Pacal’s tomb is laden with mysterious carvings, jewellery and paintings, the significance of which have never been fully grasped – until now. Using a unique decoding process Cotterell painstakingly reveals the messages left in the treasures – and the conclusions he reaches have profound implications for us all.
