Most records of Mayan history were destroyed by the Spanish, but enough remain to divine the story of the mighty Itza, who ruled much of the Yucatan peninsula for a millennia. Today, Chichen Itza is one of Mexico's most spectacular archaeological sites. The History Guy remembers some forgotten history of the Mayan civilization.
