CNN - Pyramid Discovered in Lost City of Mirador "Thousands of Pyramids Yet to be Uncovered!"

"Thousands of Pyramids Yet to be Uncovered!"
WOW!
Did you know HUGE Pyramids have recently been uncovered as recent as 2009? ...and that Thousands of Pyramids Yet to be Uncovered!" ???

Thanks pangeanet

Archaeologists have discovered what may be the world's largest pyramid by volume under the canopy of the rain forest and buried under dense vegetation. What is more enlightening and significant of the people and culture is what is revealed inside. Inside this Mayan temple are writings depicting the creation story known as the Popul Vuh engraved in a Mayan temple in El Mirador, Guatamala. It was previously thought that the Popul Vuh was influenced by Catholic church after Columbus historical discovery of America. However, these markings appear to pre-date Columbus by more than 1000 years. So how did the creation story and other influences find their way into Mayan culture if it this was originally built in 300BC?

What I found interesting is that this single Mayan city is larger in size than modern-day downtown Los Angeles. This new discovery of information correlates with the stories and historical record included in the writings of the Book of Mormon. For one thing in the Book of Mormon the connection to Jerusalem and what is now known as the Old Testament records including the books of Genesis, Exodus and so on were kept on 'plates of brass' and passed from generation to generation and which were considered sacred. Writings on the walls of most temples it is safe to say typically are sacred and considered worth featuring upon such a monumental undertaking as the greatest pyramid by volume known to exist anywhere in the world. This is an example of an extremely significant historical discovery that needs to be preserved and studied further. It would be tragic to lose another wonder of the world and the richness of what it means to humanity to greed, nature or other forces. Far too much has already been lost in regard the many cultures and especially Mayan culture. One of the greatest civilizations ever to exist and one which dominated this hemisphere. CNN

@frustratedhacker 2012 isnt end of the world but an end of a cycle

@1000gohead LOL Well history is history, some of it is boring and some of it will blow your mind! Can you imagine how much has happened in the past that we know NOTHING of because the governments of the world have always kept it secret. Seriously, things tend to leak out at times and the government rushes to cover it up so I ask myself WHY!?!?! Why would they discover and ancient building, let's say in the Middle East and keep it secret...why?...I think there’s much more to our human race.

@comlien I agree... A bunch of alarmist freaks that are controlling people (purposefully or not) into seeing only their pov.

[fashonthem]

@1000gohead Hmm...That’s interesting. I've never really thought about the similarities you have mentioned...It has me thinking!

[1000gohead]

@fashonthem I'm still waiting for the information they found out through a satellite that detected 1000 tombs and 17 pyramids uncovered in Egypt. There hasn't been a update since. Like you said that Mayans and Egyptians knew of one another, and recently I found out that the pacific islanders Melanesian people share similar customs to the Mayans. Is it a coincidence that Native Americans, people of Papua New Guinea, and some Africans wear Feathered headdresses? The truth will be uncovered soon

[1000gohead]

@fashonthem I was shocked when I first found out, but at the same time felt angry because all this time wasted learning European worthless history I could have been studying this and beyond.

[fashonthem]

The world will be shocked when they discover that the Mayans and the Egyptians knew of one anther, traded, all in secrecy… All hundreds of years before the arrival of the Spanish.

Chinese pyramid is 230 meter X 300 meter tall.

Likely the world largest, China has over 120 pyramids has found

[frustratedhacker]

Just hope they'll find another piece of the Mayan calendar there. That way people would stop worrying about 2012 being the end of the world.
