24 experts are traveling from Guatemala, Mexico, the United States, Australia and Great Britain, the Cultural Museum announced Friday. They all wanted to share the scientific knowledge they had gained from their work on the Tikal tablets in the museum.
The wooden Basel tablets come from the ancient Mayan metropolis of Tikal in what is now Guatemala, which was at the height of its culture in the 7th and 8th centuries. Ancient door lintels of temple buildings, due to their intricate relief images and hieroglyphic inscriptions, were said to play a central role in deciphering the complex connections between religion, politics, and society of the late classical Maya period.
The Tikal tablets arrived in Basel in 1878. Basel researcher and doctor Gustav Bernoulli found them and sent them to his hometown. The tablets are of great cultural and scientific value because only a few remains of this type still exist. Conquistadors and missionaries from Spain destroyed any written material they could find.
