Kiuic
Remarkably preserved Mayan ruins in the Yucatan show almost immediate abandonment.
“The people just walked away and left everything in place,” says archaeologist George Bey of Millsaps College in Jackson Miss., co-director of the Labna-Kiuic Regional Archaeological Project. “Until now, we had little evidence from the actual moment of abandonment, it’s a frozen moment in time.”

i wish I still had my photos of that site as it looked in 1993, when I was there. They’ve cleared away a heap of vegetation!
