Abstract
Quiriguá Stela K - 3D model is shown in relation to c. 1909 image showing west (right) and east (left) sides. This historical photograph was taken during fieldwork at the site by Edgar Hewett, Director of the School of American Archaeology in Santa Fe, New Mexico. This carved stone monument is from the Maya site of Quiriguá, Department of Izabal, Guatemala. Working in collaboration with Guatemalan archaeologists and site management, the USF CDHGI team of archaeologists and 3D specialists are recording stela, monuments, and carvings as well as terrain and site landscape details.
