A set of inscribed panels carved by the ancient Maya people of Central America inspired Dr Neil Brodie of Cambridge University, an expert on the looting of archaeological treasures, and Mayanist Simone Clifford-Jaegar, to mount an expedition to the jungles of Guatemala. Their mission – to find the lost city from which the stone panels came. Archaeologists have been searching for the mysterious place known as Site Q since the 1960s without success. Quest For The Lost City travels down the Usumacinta River, a site well-travelled by experts; and then deep into the jungle where the explorers find a recently discovered ‘lost city’. Here, the mystery of Site Q takes a surprising and revelatory new turn thanks to a sporting hero named ‘Red Turkey’, a map showing two stones in the jungle clearing, and a Museum Director in Maine...

I'm not surprised. I often wondered, as I flew from Mexico City to Tegucigalpa Honduras, why they weren't searching among all the different colored greenery growing in the forests, affected by the limestone buildings. It was obvious to me they were buildings beneath the trees and woods. When they developed that foto machine to detect it, I figured it was about time. Finally they can concentrate on more archeological finds. On one of my excursion in Copan, I met an elder gentleman who was so happy to share his knowledge on the mayan priests. Seeing that I was an eager student, he stayed with me for hours explaining the metaphysics and theory of the Mayan priests. Unfortunately, the museum was later burned down. I've never read any of those theories in any research papers on Mayan priests. Sad.

I always try to imagine what the photographers have to go through to get these shots. They went up the pyramid first, carrying a camera, to get the shots of the others climbing up. They get out of the 4X4 and stand off to one side to show the vehicles driving through the mud. And, mixed in with all the action are some lovely shots of the flora and fauna of the jungle around them. And they remain anonymous, never seen on screen. Only their spectacular work speaking for their skill.

It's amazing that there are literally 100's or 1,000's of lost hidden Mayan cities still under the Guatemalan jungle.

I'm so glad they found it. So many documentaries take you through the journey process, only to end with leads that go no where, but having eliminated or ruled out what is not. Discovery doesn't happen within the time it takes to film a documentary. So for those who will pursue careers in archaeology or even geology, it's a good experience to see that the outcome isn't normally like this.

8:25 I like it how they're all too busy cackling to each other that they sail right past the Temple steps at the side of the river to notice !

Imagine how many hundreds of thousands of people are saddened by this destruction, just because a collector wanted to keep a carved rock in a display cabinet. Not to mention the valuable information we could have learned if everything was left where it was found. Why do we value "I want this" higher than "I want to learn about this"?

One must wonder how many and what sort of antiquities are in private hands unseen from the rest of the world. There are some people out there with priceless artifacts

I just went to Ekbalahm in Mexico which is the city of the Jaguar. Apparently there are more than one city where the king considered himself a Jaguar. This particular king used his fathers sculpted femur bone as his scepter. We also went to Chichean Itza and the ball court there was massive compared to the other sites.

You know it's going to be a pleasant journey when the guide tells you to keep your eyes on the ground. And also there are poisonous snakes that are aggressive, and they look exactly like the ground.

Last time I was in Tikal, they hadn't even explored or recorded all of that site yet. You could stand on the top of one of the temples and see other temples in the jungle that had no name. Oh and there are others in Belize and Honduras too, all across Central America, and there are stalls along the sides of the road that sell miniatures of glyphs like the ones these fellers are getting so excited about. Not quite as unexplored as it seems to be, but leave it for a couple of years and the jungle reclaims it again.

We still need to find Paititi, or more commonly known as “El Dorado”
