The ancient Maya civilization of Central America left behind an
intricate and mysterious hieroglyphic script, carved on monuments,
painted on pottery, and drawn in handmade bark-paper books. For
centuries, scholars considered it too complex to ever understand
until recently, when an ingenious series of breakthroughs finally
cracked the code and unleashed a torrent of new insights into the
Mayas' turbulent past. For the first time, NOVA presents the epic
inside story of how the decoding was done in "Cracking the Maya
Code."

Here's what you'll find on the companion Web site:
