Buried Power, Dzibilchaltun Seven Dolls
With Georges Fery
Unlike other Precolumbian sites on the Yucatan peninsula such as Chichen Itza, Mayapan, Uxmal, and others, the lesser-known Dzibilchaltun still retains unanswered questions about Structure1-sub and its “dolls.” E. Wyllys Andrews IV, along with George W. Brainerd had reported the site in 1941, after its discovery by Alfredo Barrera Vásquez. The site was thoroughly mapped, researched, and partially restored over 40 years, thanks to the remarkable work of talented archaeologists and dedicated scholars, among whom was one of IMS’s own, the late Edward Kurjack, who helped the author understand the ancient city’s past.
