Title: Secrets of the Maya Underworld 1/5

Added: Sep 2, 2008

Author: DocumentalesMexico

Duration: 10:1

Description:
Secrets of the Maya Underworld Part 1Unlike other great civilisations such as the Romans and the Ancient Egyptians, the Mayan empire did not arise from the banks of a mighty river. Much of the Mayan world is in fact devoid of even the smallest river or lake. Then why did they populate Yucatan? The Maya believed that the freshwater pools, 'cenotes', dotted across the area were sacred portals to the underworld. They are indeed portals, but rather to an incredible underground labyrinthine systems of rivers. Only now being properly explored and understood, this secret world was created by nature in a unique chain of dramatic events...Underneath the jungle-clad Mayan temples of Yucatan lies a world even more mysterious, even more incredible than the Maya could have ever imagined... A whole food chain has been found in the cenotes deepest recesses -- over 20 species that have never seen the light of day. Some of the underground caverns are not totally full of water... incredibly, they are home to thousands of bats.

Aug 14, 2011 - We are so focused on the military aspect of a civilization, that when we look at the technological advancements of an empire, and we see stone carved or wooden weapons, we automatically assume that they were primitive. Thats how we can distinguish periods. Civilizations thrive through warfare back in those days, that we dont seem to care about their mathematical achievements or astronomy. Thats why these people were far ahead of their time. They believe more in intelligence to progress than war

Dec 10, 2011 - Human sacrifice? No wonder the Spaniards kicked their asses

jackrazalas Says:

Dec 10, 2011 - Their so called "brain surgeries" were merely trepannings, small holes made in the skull to reduce swelling. Brain surgery it was NOT.

jackrazalas Says:

Dec 10, 2011 - Other civilizations did it too.

Sergionewyork Says:

Dec 28, 2011 - The Mayan must have hidden their "bible" and knowledge somewhere.... they have not been found yet.

semperFi4ever100 Says:

Jan 2, 2012 - They didn't hide it, thus it probably will never be found. As far as I know, there was some Spanish priest dedicated to finding all Mayan books and burning them. And he did a fairly good job, sadly...

Jan 27, 2012 - in a few hundred years, maybe humans will call current surgeries "slaughter" because we needed to open up someone and put someone back together afterwards.... seeing the current technological process with how we can use precision lasers

May 25, 2012 - muy buen documental, que lastima que sepamos tan poco de las riquezas en nuestro propio pais, que tengan que venir extranjeros y se preocupen por enseñar y preservar estas maravillas, mientras tanto que nos siguan pasando tvnovelas, programas de chismes, y futbol, ahh y claro seguir mantener un sindicato de educacion nefasto, todo ello auspiciado, por nuestro brillantes e incorruptibles gobernantes!! esa es la radiografia de nuestra realidad
