It's remarkable the amount of ingenuity that has been lost as discoveries like this shows. From the article this site dates anywhere from 500 to 800 BC which is relatively new given that Mayan civilization arose 2000 BC. That 2000 BC is an estimate given that to be called a civilization something of significance has to be identified, so how long did it take to get to that point. Imagine what future human civilization may know about humans of today - 3000 years in the future.
