520    Archaeoastronomy and the Maya illustrates 
       archaeoastronomical approaches to ancient Mayan cultural 
       production. The book is contextualized through a history 
       of archaeoastronomical investigations into Mayan sites, 
       originating in the 19th century discovery of astronomical 
       tables within hieroglyphic books. Early 20th century 
       archaeological excavations revealed inscriptions carved 
       into stone that also preserved astronomical records, along
       with architecture that was built to reflect astronomical 
       orientations. These materials provided the basis of a 
       growing professionalized archaeoastronomy, blossomi.
