Does it have the same meaning as hoy?

I'm trying to say: The Mayans of Today

Should I say Los Mayas de Hoy or Los Mayas de Hoy en Día?

megan, even though they both work in this context, please understand that they do NOT mean the same thing. To answer your question "What does hoy en día mean? "

hoy en día means "these days" or "nowadays"
"actualmente" is another word you might want to consider.

Both are correct in this context. But I would not use capital letters for "hoy en día".

Possibly using a form of actual might work too.

In a title, Los Mayos de Hoy would be catchier.
