Continuing our "Old School Classics" theme here at the Pseudoarchaeology Podcast, today we have the tale of Augustus Le Plongeon, nineteenth century explorer extraordinaire.  His ideas on the Maya were terrible, but his photos of Maya sites were great!  A classic case of great data meets bad interpretation - enjoy!
