15yo 'discovers' ancient Mayan city by using ancient constellation
The inquisitive youngster, who has a deep fascination with ancient Maya, analysed 22 Mayan constellations and realised that the Mayans aligned their 117 cities with the positions of the stars.
It was the first time a researcher had made a direct correlation between the stars and the locations of the Mayan cities, the Journal de Montreal reported.
But William pressed on with his research, eventually coming to realise that there was one star in another constellation that didn’t appear to have a corresponding city.
