| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| This tablet is part of the Ruins in San Andreas. Unfortunately I dont have any desriptive knowledge in regards to what it symoblizes, and when it is from. All I know is that it is a remnant of the Fringe Mayan civilization that once existed in El Salvador. |

Nice picture Nima. I don't know what it means either but I am sure it has to do with their culture or an event that happened in their timeline. How did you end up visiting El Salvador anyway?
Roberto
It means absolutely nothing. It's a concrete modern age maya-ish stellae. It was made for the opening of the Roberto Poma field museum at San Adrés Archaeological site. It actually is a misleading gardening statue because it's "sold" to tourist as an actual maya stellae, when in truth is something modren. Hope it helped.
