A recent discovery in Guatemala has shed new light on the ancient Mayan civilization. A stone carving depicting the Mayan sun god has been found in a temple in Tikal. The carving is believed to date back to the 9th century, and it provides insight into the religious beliefs of the ancient Maya. The sun god was a prominent figure in Mayan religion, and he was often venerated as a god of war. The discovery of this carving suggests that the ancient Maya may have worshipped the sun god in order to invoke his power in times of conflict. It also raises the possibility that the ancient Maya had contact with ancient astronauts who may have introduced them to the concept of the sun god. Whatever the case may be, this discovery provides us with a glimpse into the fascinating belief system of the ancient Maya.
