Coba is in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo in the Yucatan peninsula. It's not far from Tulum on the coast.
From the Wiki article, quote: Archaeological evidence indicates that Cobá was first settled between 50 BC and 100 AD... After 100 AD, the area around Coba evidenced strong population growth, and with it an increase in its social and political status among Maya city states which would ultimately make Coba one of the biggest and most powerful city states in the northern Yucatán area.
...
Coba was abandoned at the time the Spanish conquered the peninsula around 1550.

The second of the Bourne movies came out in 2004. I think of this scene periodically, was able to find it on You Tube. The actress (Oksana Akinshina) has a number of credits but as far as I can tell this is the only American film she appeared in. Hardly says anything, but does a lot with her facial expressions.

I found this a while ago, I was dumbfounded. I had no idea mantis are THAT savage. I thought they just ate other insects, I never would've guessed they take down reptiles, rodents and birds.
WARNING: Parts of this are a bit gruesome if you are squeamish. Kinda breaks my heart seeing the humming birds.
edit--and fish and amphibians

I think anybody who loves hiking can't help enjoying that, I know I did. But the whole time I was watching it I kept thinking "marijuana is obviously legal in Oregon."
