Listeros,

The recently discovered Maya altar found in the Yucatan recently will  
be re-located when it is reconstructed. The 200 stones that made up  
the altar have been registered for re-building. The stones show that  
there was an occupation of that place from 250 CE to 900 CE. 2  
skeletons have also been found, also a metate, and limestone and flint  
artifacts and mollusks. The mapping of the site will continue to  
completion and then the highway will be built over the possible site  
unfortunately.
