It was a wonderful documentary about a Mayan ancient civilization trail ( ancient Naachton city) beneath densely forest...in Guatemala 🇬🇹...thank you (Slice full Doc) documentary channel for sharing
Strongly recommend you watch this documentary. Thankyou so much for uploading this fabulous documentary. One of the best I've seen on Mayan culture. As I was watching I was asking questions all of which were answered. I shall watch this again and probably again to learn more.
Thank you for preparing this informative video and for taking me along for the ride. Un gros merci pour le qualite' d'information au sujet to cette magnifique ville Maya.
I thought the real name for Teotihuacán was unknown. What was it referred to on the stone? misinterpretation? It was not known in 2016, release date on this documentary. Still enjoyed it.
10:15 15 million days or 15,000 days? I can't hear if the guy said 15 mil or 15 millones. Now that I think about it, it was a mistranslation. 15 mil is 15,000 days or around 41 years. 15 million days hasn't happened yet. 😊
@@claytoncarson111 I speak Spanish. The man said 15 mil. That's 15.000. Puedo hablar español. Le dijo quince mil.15.000.000 son 15 millones en español. It was a mistranslation to english. He didn't say millones. He said mil.
Just don't think there are no more Mayans. I know a Mayan who speaks around 6 languages. Je is around 30 years old now. They were made to learn Spanish as children.
@jordanburnette8070 I don't remember the time stamp but ask your partner to listen to the video underneath the talking. They do it a lot in media. Most of the time, it's due to country specific dialects. For example, a person from Spain shouldn't translate Spanish from the Dominican Republic. The idioms aren't the same. For example, in the Dominican Republic, a male can tell his friend "tu esta guapo." That means, "You are angry." In Spain, it means "you are handsome." The Spanish speaker would think the men are gay. 😊 In this video, maybe they used Google Translate. ???
15 million days to build, I don't think so. That is a lot of years,more years than the great pyramids! That's older than the Old Testament! 41,000 years=15 million days! Wrong,do it again.
I think there’s insane amount of speculation always with archaeologists.. everything from dating to putting spiritual beliefs Is so far off in my opinion it seems ignorant to say things like you know nothing hem for a fact from that far back. Even dating is not exact science
Carbon Dating organic residues is an exact science and we can pinpoint exactly when those buildings were inhabited. Stone erosion on the buildings also help to establish a chronology. Also, thankfully to the Mayans themselves, they were obsessed with marking time and their complex calendar systems. We can translate those calendars just like we can translate their script, and they always point out the exact date when something important happened, such as the crowning or death of a king. And all of that (carbon dating + erosion + calendars) show that the major mayan cities were inhabited between 200 BC and 900 AD. So no, it's not pure speculation. There's a lot of real science involved.

These cities were all connected thrived together.. 20 million strong... their cities are layer out to the star constellation s... prove there built with a purpose and one designer over ruling them all... .. only at then end was there conflict and in there ball games the winner was sacrifice not the looser.... sacrifice was a great honor... not torture...
why are French men giving the orders? Nobody in Guatemala was interested? This should be covered in the film. why are the workers taking orders from some French men?
Leave these structures alone so people can stumble onto them and experience the real world. These scientists should find real work outside of university and government funding.
Do you know why south and central American cultures failed? No wheat. No wheat before Columbus and an all corn diet will make you cut peoples hearts out after awhile. 😂

15 million days is about 41,000 years which has definitely happened

There are millions of Maya people living in Mexico today.
@@johnsteila411 I'm not aware of Mexico but I am personally aware of Guatemala tribes that were isolated until recently. My friend is one.
@@MoncœrCoyoteSmith There are millions of Maya in Mexico who still speak Yucatec.
Wheres the follow up video. We need answers
Why couldn’t they use LIDAR?

When you say architects, do you mean archaeologists?
May be. Because they find huge structures who are partly destroyed, they need architects to read the remains and make reconstructions.

20 meters high? 60+ ft 4 km long. What are these fools smoking?
Why when workers catalogue the ceramic shards, do they have to use a fountain pen?
They love the past, recent and very old. Quite logical.
