Summary:
The book is a totalizing vision where the broad knowledge of archaeology, ethnohistory, cultural history, linguistics and ethnography of the notable archaeologist Alberto Ruz Lhuillier (France 1906 - Canada 1979) converges and is accompanied by current images that appeared in the original edition, including photographs of the last intervention to the death mask of the Palenque ruler. "June 19, 2022 marks 70 years since a group of scientists, led by Alberto Ruz Lhuillier, descended the staircase that led them to the tomb of the king K'inich Janaab Pakal; that is why we consider it appropriate to re-edit the work. "El Pueblo Maya: Ayer y Hoy" published posthumously in 1979 under the title "El Pueblo Maya" (HKB Translation) --Page [13].
