Joya de Ceren, El Salvador: Audio Journeys Explores an Ancient Mayan Village (Unabridged‪)‬

Audio Journeys explores the ancient ruins of a Mayan village in El Salvador. Twenty kilometers northwest of San Salvador, the capital of El Salvador, is the 650-year-old village of Joya de Ceren, the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in El Salvador.

What makes this site unique is that the everyday life of the Mayans was preserved when around 600 A.D. a volcano erupted spewing volcanic ashes that covered the land, caused the common people to flee their homes.
