  • lol you got it totally backwards mate....if europe was in a "bubble" like mesoamerica...it would have never had the things it had...gun powder , compasses from china...number systems from india..architecture influences from egypt and others..etc etc....where as in mesoamerica all the technology and knowledge was home grown...they didnt have the luxury of trading technology and ideas with other civilizations the way the old world civilizations did with each other

  • Something I can't get, the Mayans had metal..METAL!!!! But why didn't they use it?

see all

    Maybe because they didn't have one idea of what to do with it?

  • What an unfortunate crown @ 6:54, and those striped long feathers are plain old Ring-necked pheasant which the white people had not introduced to the new world yet.

  • those where same people as people in old world.. cant see much diference.. just becouse catholic church never been there before Columbo.. doesnt mean anything.. i can se croses like those in greece, macedonia and everywhere in america too.. swastikas & piramyds also.. big stone balls like in bosnia.. as a metter of fact in Bosnia, Serbia, Macedonia we use term for village - Palanka, which is to me similar as Palenke.. also word for Hell or something so bad as Hell is Pakao, similar to Pakal...

  • @louis1439 sicuramente come la tua mamma.

  • @AdrianLugo18 I like what you say. You are absolutely correct, but let's hope that we can seek a path toward reconciliation.

  • AWESOME!!!!!

    

  • theis s gay

  • @AdrianLugo18 Adrian you are right. They deserve more merit but they don't since history teaches something else about these cultures.

  • @TitanSubZero15 Can you refer me to an article or paper that says that the Mayans had metal? I'm curious to know b/c I always hear that the were living in the Stone Age, and that gets annoying after a while. Thanks :)

  • Interesting, thank you for uploading.
