 * ALT1: ... that most of the stelae at the Maya city of Ixtonton were looted before the site's existence was reported to the Guatemalan authorities in 1985?

date, length, referencing fine, offline AGF from an expert on the subject, same for copyvio/pl. But I don't find the hook statements easily in the article. I would prefer ALT1, but recommend to have one general remark on looting in History, with a date. For the original hook: there should be a ref for the statement right after the mentioning, + it says "most important", not "most powerful", - not essentially different, but harder to find. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:37, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I've tweaked the first hook to reflect the wording in the article intro, and copied the cite in straight after it. I've also copied the discovery/looting into the history section as suggested. BTW, most of the refs are online and hyperlinked from the title in the references section - but most are in Spanish.
