Caption
Pictured are UC grad student Kim Thompson, Maria de Los Angeles Corado (Guatemalan archaeologist) and Demetrio Cordoba (Guatemalan worker). Trees in the Maya forests can live for hundreds of years and therefore the trees there now are only a few generations away from the time the Maya abandoned Tikal. They expect to find patterns in distribution of trees that reflect ancient Maya usage as they have found at other sites.
