(162,376 posts)Interesting learning how they are studying material in Lake Chichancanab.
This structure from your link is astonishing every time one sees it. So fantastically advanced far beyond anything one could ever expect. We stand in desperate need to see breakthroughs on these mysteries staring the world in the face day after day after all these thousands of years since they were new.
It wouldn't be right to wonder about them all our lives and die still not knowing anything more than we did when we first learned they existed. Really gotta hope someone will open the door just a little for the truth to start shining through.
Thank you for the information. It's great.

(11,899 posts)But not sure why this is noteworthy except that it confirms what we already knew (Ive a PhD in Latin American history specializing in indigenous peoples). Drought really contributed to the Maya collapse.
However I take serious issue with some of the images. Chichén Itzá and Edzná were post-Classic sites, that is post collapse.

(162,376 posts)It has aspects I've never seen in other photos, which are fascinating, although I can't tell why. It's amazing. So glad so much of it has remained intact.
Very glad it's added to my memory now, and I can't forget it. Clearly different from the others. Thanks.
