This is terrific....I have worked closely with both a Mexica (Aztec) Maestro and a Mayan who is an archaeologist...they have shared many stories re their history with me....listening to this has helped me put some of this into a better context, thank you!
I'm a new subscriber after watching the Lex podcast. I opened up 56 wikipedia tabs while watching your interview to learn more about. You are an incredible interviewee, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the interview.
Same here. Absolutely enthralled the whole Lex interview. So glad I know of Ed now! Looking into everything I can find online that Ed has done! Wish I could help with advocating for the factual North American history to be in regular curriculum for all public schools!!
Same here! Googled Ed early in the interview and was dissapointed he wasn't on X or other social media. Psyched about finding this channel! Went to Teotihuacan 30 years ago at 18 years old. Was more interested in the english girls I was with than the site 😂
Glad it was helpful! Let me know via email if you'd like any of the references I collected. I plan to put them in the show notes, but I'm taking the weekend off.
I wish I had discovered this channel sooner! I fall asleep to your podcast, but I also stay awake for it too. That means, I listen to every one of these at least twice (or will). I totally suggest adding an ASMR tag somewhere, because you have a soothing voice. There are entire channels dedicated to "ASMR history" using your knowledge anyway. Thank you for ALL that you do and have done!! I'm a nerd and you're my hero!
Thank you Dr. Barnhart. The first of the month is never a disappointment when it arrives. You have again presented and isolated unique information and perspective that I was previously unaware of, which is important to my own avocational research projects.
What a brilliant lecture! I'm with the comment two below mine. You made my day! I've visited Teotihuacan a number of times....and many others. I simply study as a lay person, but find it all fascinating. You really bring the characters from Teotihuacan and Tikal, etc. to life. Thank you!!!!
Just saw you on Lex's podcast! What a beautiful conversation :) If i may, I think this content would be much more consumable (to the masses) if you provided visuals correlating to what you're talking about.
We have visited Teotihucan twice before, however , your new episode has inspired us to see it again on a forthcoming trip to Mexico City with a group of friends. Also, you have piqued our interest in one of your guided tours next year. May be seeing you.😎
Huaca is from the Andeans?...I'm paused on mirrors...Mirror of the Gods...recall something about pyrite coatings on the pyramids, or was that magnetite...anyway, Feathered Serpent Pyramid readsaid to be decorated with obsidian mirrors, the serpent heads emerging from mirrors- the Aztecs a Mirror Cult...🤔
Burned 550 C.E. Sounds like the Snake Kings of Dzibanche/Calakmul etc. were arsonists. Just kidding (mostly). This video surprised me by being extremely interesting. Intrigued by the idea of Teotihuacan exporting a militaristic philosophy & the pecked cross. I hope one day we can unearth more info on the actual history of the Classical period re: the political intrigues between Teo & the Maya (esp. the Ka'an Dinasty). Thanks for the mind stimulating presentation.
Oh, lost part of this comment...let the clip run on into the next, and slid out from me, or something...try to recollect!...Ai Paec, the Moche Decapitor God is seen with a Saint Andrew's cross on his back, an X-seen in Aztec motifs same way-the crossroads with little feet...aspect of traveling merchants...Teotihuacan "mercantile power house"...an aspect of the Andean Step Fret is victims falling off a mountain-Mayan Aztec victims falling down stepped pyramids...the Aztec Flower Wars a follow on of the ritualistic warfare...on another note: the seashells on the Feathered Serpent Pyramid were from Ecuador, where divers collected them...Tlaloc's round eyes are obsidian lensed goggles worn by the Ecuadorian divers...the seashells, Strombus, and Spondylus, conch and scallop, are sacred to the Andeans too...during red tides, dinoflaggelat blooms, they are poisonous, and hallucinigenic...around the world such, and noted by other cultures...🤔

Enjoy your style, enjoy your format and casual, but well-informed approach. No chest beating, no smug-blowharding, very listenable. Kudos.

I've been waiting on this one!
I had never heard of the pecked circles and crosses so this was extremely informative! Thank you!

Awesome Ed you changed my understanding of Teotihuacan! Thanks, brother well done.😎
Thanks Barry! Happy holidays!
One of my favorite places on Earth. Fascinated by your theory of Spiritual warfare
Interesting as always My personal theory about the “collapse” in meso america is there was a calendar shift to a new point of view

The most important city of the Clásico, following to the Mayan city of El Mirador in the Preclásico

I feel like zenith passage is correct
