Lovely compilation! At @26:13 we are talking about the creation of the New World and the start of the Long Count in 3114 BC, which ended on December Solstice, 2012, a 5,125 year cycle that is exactly 1/5 of the Precession of the Equinoxes, and exactly 144,000 days long, or 7,200 cycles of the 260-day Tzolk' een calendar.
I wonder if the firefly holding the cigar in the codex style vessels with Chak, jaguar baby, and death are referencing back or at least alluding to the popol vuh?

taking an archeology class for “breadth” credits and really enjoyed a lot of your Doyle’s writting
Guatemala heart of the Mayan world 🇬🇹
No te engañes, todo lo realmente importante estuvo y sigue estando en México.
Guatemala es un invento geografico Nahua. El estado nacion de Guatemala no tiene nada que ver con los Mayas antiguos.

The socalled deities were ETs who did gene manipulation thus the word creation.
Everytime I see a broad Maya headdress it looks like a fan palm, or the top of its tree.
