Guatemala: Volcanoes on Mayan Territory
In Guatemala, the Santiaguito volcano was born less than 100 years ago. Scientists are fascinated by its youth and intense activity. Volcanologists from all over the world are attracted by the unique opportunity to observe a volcano in the early stage of its life. But this research is also geared towards protecting those populations living at the foot of the volcano as well as coffee plantations. For the descendants of the Mayan people, the Santiaguito and many other volcanoes of the region symbolize the creative power of nature.
