After 10 months of intensive exploration, a group of Mexican scientists discovered the largest network of underwater caves in the world.

Covering the incredible length of 347 km in caves, this underground labyrinth is not only a natural spectacle. It is also an important archaeological discovery that could reveal many lost secrets of the ancient Mayan civilization.

“This huge cave is the largest underwater archaeological site in the world”, says archaeologist Guillermo de Anda from the National Institute of Anthropology and History of Mexico. 'There are more than a hundred archaeological findings, including the existence of evidence of early American colonists, vanished wildlife and natural, of the Mayan civilization', adds.
