Visited: Yes on 29th Apr 2008
Tikal submitted by C_Michael_Hogan on 29th Apr 2008. Site in Guatemala
Stela 22 and a circular sacrificial altar at Tikal. When I compared the condition of this stela and altar to a mid 20th century of the same features published by Hunter, it was evident that considerable damage has occurred during that period, either through acid rain or simple weathering from outdoor exposure.
