    I could swear I've seen this book somewhere in my parents bookshelf... Need to go search for it.

    Some years ago many old mayan books/scrolls were found, 200 odd from memory and there was fear they would get buried as such, appears so as not heard anything.

    Was said the biggest ever book burning was the mayan data and not the nazis
