Here
is an example of something that is ignored by the press and book
publishers because it is not in fashion, even though it is no less
interesting than something similar that is in fashion. Ancient Greece
is famous for its ruins, sculpture and painting on pottery. Ancient
Mayas are famous for their ruins, but their painting on pottery seems
to be almost completely ignored even though it is no less interesting
than the Greek painting. It is demonstrated in museum exhibitions
where one can see the Maya painted pottery. However, any publication
on the subject in either language (I mean English of Spanish) is hard
to find and comments in the museums are also extremely limited.
Examples here come from museums in Guatemala and Mexico.
