Canadian Teen Discovers Mayan City and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt

I was a typical 15-year-old. I had homework assignments to put off until the day before they were due, Driver's Ed hours to acquire, and groups to not fit in to. With all of those teenage shenanigans, I was busy; certainly too busy to apply an ancient civilization's obsession to modern day charts in the hopes of finding a long-lost city...

...without ever leaving home.

That's just what William Gadoury, a 15-year-old student from Quebec did.  He managed to find a long lost Mayan City, all by studying the stars in our skies; the very stars that dominated the minds of ancient Central Americans.
