Joya de Ceren
An study of the acoustics of the replica temazcal (sweatbath) at the village site of Cerén in El Salvador, more in the comments on our page.. Sometimes called, "America's Pompeii," this Classic Mayan village was suddenly covered by volcanic ash in 595 AD. The village lay less than a kilometre from Loma Caldera volcano. Excavations have found several homes made from adobe brick with thatched roofs, complete with simple interior benches, pots, tools and the remains of food. Top photo: The Temazcal replica. It is located in the public access area of the archaeological park, so people can enter it and experience the acoustic phenomena.
