    For those interested, I'd recommend checking out the video about the Aztec gods as well: th-cam.com/video/vND4F9H8KBU/w-d-xo.html. It's fascinating to compare and contrast the pantheons of these two Mesoamerican civilizations.

      This sounds interesting. You're tracing them to where? They have other, more original names stemming from somewhere else? I have to say this sounds fascinating, and like a compelling mystery. I'd like to hear more about this if you find my message

      @ThePhilosophicalOpossum 😱😭 they always erase comments if it hits home . 😡 that's why I'm writing a book. It covers everything. Not sure the tittle yet , more than likely about everyone being a sheep on this planet . Everyone's religion ties to them and I can prove they run this world till this day .

    • @evonannoredars
      @evonannoredars 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The depictions aren't actually very good in terms of historical accuracy - they look AI-generated, which would be inherently ingrained with the popular misconceptions of maya culture

      NO!!! They are NOT Black afros..
      They are brown indigenous people, a big percent of Mexicans are, and most Mexicans have roots of Aztecs, olmecs, toltecs…also they are still here in Mexico in a lot of tribes and Mestizos (half indigenous and Spaniards).

    • @trufu9678
      @trufu9678 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @cesarnavarro1318 stop lying to yourself. Most Mexicans were Asian slaves brought to the Americas by the Spanish and Portugese. There are multiple murals depicting them as black people with locks. Mexicans don't have locks. Try again

      @trufu9678 bro are you fucking high? You do Meth? All Native Americans and Ancient South Americans, ALL Indigenous (original people) in North and South America were the same color. The Mayans had the exact Skin tone as the Natives in Canada and Native Mexican (Aztecs, Toltecs, Zapotecas etc) had the same skin tone as Mayans and people in Brazil. They were all BROWN. Suck a dick with your misinformation

      @dabearsbriggs55 you the one tripping cuz I have yet to see a Mexican with dreadlocks like the mayans drew them selves. Besides most mexicans are descendants of Asian slaves brought to the America's by the Spanish. But the victorious always write the history books
