George Washington, John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison are typically counted as "Founding Fathers", but none of them signed the Declaration of Independence.

General George Washington was Commander of the Continental Army, and was defending New York City in July 1776. As instructed by John Hancock, Washington read the Declaration of Independence to the army on July 9th.

Presumably he was rather busy as Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army, a position to which he was appointed in June, 1775. The fighting was underway well before the Declaration of Independence was signed in July (or August, or November, depending on who you ask) of 1776. The battles of Lexington and Concord in April, 1775 are usually considered to mark the beginning of the war.

Rulers of the Mayan city-states claimed
Alex_Xolod [135]
The American continent was populated relatively recently: the man only appeared at the end of the Paleolithic. Between 50,000 and 12,000 BC reached the first people to the New World, and soon the whole American continent was populated by people.
From linguistic and archaeological studies indicate that the Mayans already around 2000 BC. one must have been recognizable culture. The ethnogenesis of the Mayas took place most likely in the Sierra de los Cuchumatanes in western Guatemala. Archaeology has shown that the Maya already from that time began to put down his buildings for ceremonial purposes. From this early time is not quite clear where the boundaries lie between the actual Maya and their neighbors, the Olmecs. The two cultures seem to have influenced each other. Eventually, the Olmec culture faded after its influence on the Yucatán Peninsula to have the current Guatemala expanded.
