Discovered in 1570 by Diego García de Palacio, the ruins of Copán, one of the
most important sites of the Mayan civilization, were not excavated until the
19th century. The ruined citadel and imposing public squares reveal the three
main stages of development before the city was abandoned in the early 10th
century. The Historic Centre of Copan was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1980
