	Pakal Ahau - Alberto Ruz Lhuillier's Grave
		In the synchronicity of time, when Ruz Lhuillier died, the last Pakal was moved by the Pakalian Group to the United States to further his education and become an ecotopian.
		It took Ruz four long years working in hot weather to follow a stairwell that led him 80 vertical feet that terminated in a chamber 30 feet long and 13 feet wide with a high vaulted arch of 23 feet.
		But Ruz was disturbed by the fact that the bones in the sarcophagus appeared to belong to a man some forty years younger than Pakal at the time of his death.
