The deciphering of Maya hieroglyphic writing either listed on the monuments, or written in the manuscripts, or painted or carved on ceramics, can be read easily with some confidence now. Such decipherment had completely changed our knowledge about the ancient civilization, and gave the Mayan people a long history that other areas are missing it especially from the New World in Columbia before. Many years ago, the scientific knowledge of this type of script was confined on the scientists and art historians and other specialists.
