Scientists end mystery of Maya city

"A decades-long mystery surrounding the rumored existence of a Maya city has reportedly ended with the discovery of the city in the jungles of Guatemala.

"The city is the rumored home of ancient monuments that once flooded the art market, the Dallas Morning Newsreported Wednesday.

"Archaeologists from Southern Methodist University and Yale University have confirmed discovering the city. The find, based on discovery of a limestone panel with more than 140 hieroglyphs, ends what one archaeologist called 'one of the longest and wildest hunts for a Maya city in the history of the discipline.'"
