From Sunday, February 10, through Wednesday, February 20, AW is honored to welcome Dr. Richard Hansen for a Symposion on the Maya. President of the Foundation for Anthropological Studies and Environmental Science (FARES) and the leader of archaeological conservation in Guatemala backed by the Global Heritage Fund (GHF), Dr. Hansen is not only a noted expert in Maya history, culture, and anthropology, but works world-wide in drawing support for preservation of The Mirador Basin.
