    Wonderful! I've been a pre-Colombian history buff since the 1960s. I visited Uxmal, kabah, Sayil and Chitzen Itza in 1972. Back then the tourist system of visiting Uxmal was not as regulated and slick as it has become. There was no official entrance or "cover charge" to get in. I also made it over to Palenque which was absolutely mind blowing. It was one of the best travel-history experiences of my life.

    Surprising to not hear any mention of the Museum of Chocolate right across the street from Uxmal. THAT's one of the best places to learn about Mayan culture. If you go to Uxmal without getting the full Choco-Story, then you've really missed out. It brings Mayan culture to life, complete with reenacting cacao religious ceremonies and such. One of THE BEST cultural experiences in the entire Yucatan is right there at Uxmal.

      I would guess that the reason why mountains are commonly thought of as places of ascension is because they are the highest points on earth and therefore the closest places to heaven. They are also places to get closer to the high gods.

    • @beforeoriondotcom
      @beforeoriondotcom 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@WorldofAntiquity Perhaps true on a psychological level. Carl Jung found that the two most common non-organic symbols in dreams are the mountain and lake (body of water). Did we inherit these cosmic mountain traditions from deep in the Paleolithic or do they derive from a common dream more distant in time? Maybe some combination of the two. The worldwide archaeological evidence begs the question.

    I just started watching your series and had to stop at 1:40 because you got the chronology wrong, so I can't trust you're giving accurate information. I mean, you say the "principal fluorecence" was late and terminal classic, but just to give you an example, the city of El Mirador, a city as large as Los Angeles, with pyramids, temples and highways/aqueducts best classic period, is dated from 700 to 200 BC, by the time Tikal was just being built and was abandoned by 150 AC (to be inhabited again by the late classic up to the IX century). Even Wikipedia has the dates sort of right. In case you wonder about me, I'm from Southamerica and lived 3 years in Mexico, where I learned tons about that side of the world's history.. In case you need confirmation, just check Expedition Unknown S05E02. Good luck.

      The chronology is not wrong. You seemed to have missed my words "for the most part." And this is accurate. Yes, there will be some exceptions, but I am speaking generally.

    I was wondering all these huge stones that were moved over all sorts of terrain then shaped so precisely, is it officially a mystery to you and your collegues that favour the primitive people theory! Do you think you know how they did it? I'm not saying they were super advanced but is there a chance they had some sort of process that would of been considered advanced? Is the way you age these sites infallible? Do you think there is still bombshell evidence hiding deep in the ground that could prove there was an ancient advanced civilisation? I will have more advanced and informed questions for you when I reread some of these weird anomalies that blow the official time line of intelligent societies of the earth out the water, I'm sure your aware of these discoveries? Oh well done on getting 6thousand plus subs! P.s My questions are not in reference to this video!

      Methods for dating artifacts include relative dating methods, like stratigraphy, typological sequences, linguistic dating, climate and environmental sequences. Absolute dating methods include calendars and historical chronology, annual cycles (tree-rings, varves [lake sediment deposits], speleothems [sedimentation in limestone caves]), radioactive clocks (carbon dating, potassium-argon dating, uranium series dating, fission track dating). We also have genetic dating (estimating time spans in terms of human lifespans). Oh, and I should add that your reference to a "primitive people theory" is confusing. I never heard of such a theory, and if the people had the technology to do impressive things, they weren't primitive.
