i walked into the compound's dirt courtyard to wait for the dawn. as the early light came, i saw how poor muntaz was. his home was nothing more than a small coop, the mud room we slept in and the four walls of the courtyard. a ditch ran beneath one of the walls and out back. dishes were stacked alongside it. this was the kitchen. past the compound were the mountains. it would seem these never ended, they were not enough to protect the village from the war but they were enough to preserve it, it and its traditions. and even as isolated as the village was, sprouts of progress had arrived. motorbikes, cell phones and a few homemade satellite dishes that perch ped from -- perched from rooftops all standing as messengers from orr, more modern worlds. but it was a false progress. it measured not movements forward, but the distance we would soon travel backward when the war destroyed everything. so thank you.

i'm standing in the courtyard of a residential compound of a classic maya noble. there are about 45 of these compounds up and down the valley -- the sort of middle class of ancient classic maya society here. behind me are two buildings. the one on the right we're almost certain is a residence perhaps of the lord of this compound. and then the one on the left the bigger one over there, most probably is a temple, perhaps his funerary temple. but what we're going to do now is look at a pile of trash behind the building here. keach: sanders and webster have just uncovered a midden -- typical maya garbage dumped outside of what was presumably the kitchen. for sanders, one item in this trash raises important questions about the economic system of copan. sanders: this is a piece of a metate here. this is the basic milling stone that the ancient maya used to grind corn on. they would boil the corn in those pots, and then they would put it on the metate, and then they would take a rolling-pin-shaped piece of stone like this. and the woman would grind the boiled corn up and
