MAYA PALEOLITHIC  MUSEUM OF ART AND ARTIFACTS

From the classification of  languages of the Native First People of America and the Maya, it is hypothesized that the Maya originated from Oregon and California, migrated into Mexico and Central America then migrated back north again around the tenth century.   The physical evidence presented on this web site and discovered in California, Maui in the Hawaii Islands, and Oregon provides proof that the hypothesis has validity. The evidence may be interpreted that the Maya were among the first seafaring traders of the Pacific Rim and by the hypothesis that all these sites were continually occupied by the Maya as trading colonies. Additionally, the evidence suggests that the Maya occupied their trading colonies in the California  and the Oregon territories until the time of the west coast conquest. Their colony on Maui ended at the time of the unification of the Hawaii Islands. 

Our ambition is to be the best digital web museum to display a collection of Paleolithic art and artifacts.  In addition, we wish to provide a resource for the study of Paleolithic artifacts. Another reason for the existence of this web site is to comply with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1991.  The artifacts were discovered on private property with the land owner's consent from sites in the Pacific North American states of California, Maui in the  Hawaii Islands, and Oregon.  The exceptions to this are the artifacts that were recovered from building sites in California.   Our web site's purpose is to heighten the awareness of what paleolithic artifacts are and prevent the loss or the destruction of the rich heritage that ancient Americans created.
