EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking 19th century engraving depicts the majestic Maya Palace of Palenque, a remarkable architectural masterpiece of the Late Classic period (600-900 AD) in the ancient Mayan civilization of Mexico. The Palace, located in the heart of the city of Palenque, is a testament to the advanced urban planning and architectural skills of the Mayan people. The engraving, titled "Reconstruction by R. Cantué Márquez a través de los siglos, 1884," is a lithography, a printing process that creates an image by using a flat stone or metal plate with a thin layer of grease or a fatty substance. The intricate details of the Palace are beautifully captured in this image, with its grand columns, intricately carved friezes, and ornate decorations. The Palace of Palenque was not only a symbol of power and wealth but also a religious and ritual center. The Mayan civilization was known for its complex belief systems, and the Palace would have been the site of various religious ceremonies and rituals. The Mayans worshipped a variety of gods, and their religious practices often involved human sacrifice, divination, and the use of herbs and other natural substances. The Palace of Palenque is an important archaeological site, and its discovery in the 16th century marked a significant milestone in the study of Mayan civilization. Today, it is a popular tourist destination and a source of inspiration for scholars and researchers in the fields of archaeology, anthropology, and cultural studies. The Palace stands as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the Mayan civilization and the enduring allure of ancient civilizations.
