Video that explains what it looks like the equinox at Chichen Itza. Audio in Spanish subtitled in English. Produced by Jose Antonio Ariztegui (tariztegui@hotmail.com)
Thank you Jose. People want to believe any ridiculous thing. The end of one calendar does NOT mean 'the end of the world," does it! It means a new phase is coming
When they mean "the end of the world" it means that things are destroyed in order to get rebuilded. No necessarily mean that the world will no longer exists, but somethin big and tragic will change everything.
This site was perhaps the most impressive I've ever visited - anywhere in the world. Fantastic, I was fortunate enough to visit when it was still permitted to climb to the top of the largest temple/pyramid. Wonderful experience.
It´s not only in that place. Also occurs other effects in the sun in Dzibilchaltun, Uxmal, Mayapan at least,but do not have the promotion that Chichen Itza has.
Been there and 'El Castillo' still fills me with awe. For the earnest key-seeker: José Diaz Bolio has written imporant works on the Maya's, Kukulkan and more. Thanks for a great video.
Just came back from Chichen Itza, I only wish I have seen this video before, very clear, very informative. GREAT WORK! Acabo de volver de Chichen Itza, lastima que no oude ver este video antes, es muy informativo y claro. GRAN TRABAJO!! Muchas gracias!
We went to cancun and this was my favorite part. I would have rather spent the week at the hotel here in Yucatan than in the resort we were at, i was so impressed with this and in complete awe.
This video was made in order to be informative, in order to be seen before entering the archaeological site. Of course the shadow is manipulated because shade takes more than the 5 min video length.
If you will notice in the Angels and Demons, Vittoria cued a dialogue like this: "Prophet who predicted the annihilation of the Earth..." It is another clue to Dan Brown's next book, THE LOST SYMBOL.
Amazing, trek, it looms from the ground up! It give you the feeling of awe, it seemed like every visitor had the sense of it. 1.2 million vistors a year, the Mayans had a very structured civilization. All of the terrain and drive to it is jungle straight out of "Apocalypto".
To see this in person is stunning. I was there during Easter week and really was impressed. By the way, the Mexicans are very nice people. Many of the people in that area of Mexico are Mayan. If you are light skinned like me then go in the morning when the Sun is not so oppressive. It gets very hot in the afternoon so protect yourself with serious sunscreen.
Es imprecionante no tengo palabras para describir tan maravillosa cultura tanto como la Azteca e Inca. Que orgullo tener desendencia indigena en mi ser,ojala un dia se cumpla la consignia de Cuahutemoc.
Hace quarenta anos tuve la increíble experiencia de poder visitar Chichen Itzá. Todavia me emociono al recordar la subida de los escalones hasta el templo donde entonces se encontraban todavia artículos religiosos dentro de una celda construida para proteger esos artículos de los heréticos.
It´s so amazaing! there are so many places on earth our ancestors left behind and we just don´t see them - we forget them - I guess there are so many informations buried underneath that we just have to decipher and understand!
I am really proud to be Mexican, my ancestors were amazing, and just because Mexico isn't so great today means that i can't be as remarkable as my ancestors.
Esta es una de las mas impresionantes culturas en la historia, no solo de mesoamérica, sino de la humanidad... ahi andaré echandome unos toques y meditando en las pirámides... a huevo!
i understand what your saying iv had this thought also..i still find them interesting for the amount of knowledge they had at such an early time period about things even their conquerers had no clue about AND YET...were ripping people hearts out by the hundreds
The inner pyramid built for 251-year seasonal tropical Venus as the return of Shem-Melchizedek in 362bc from the Shem-Ramis Venus 1868bc G.Dec 17 and tropical sun of 360bc when Shem died at 600. The enlarged outer pyramid of 800 AD is built for the return of Noah-Melchizedek's 235-year Semiramis (Dove in the arrows) Sagitarius Venus of 2021bc Dec 25 (G.Dec 8). This 800ad is Greek year 6000 of Adam and the count of 235 continues to 1975.
muy buena adaptacion para los extranjeros que no tienen la mas remota idea de lo que habia aqui..pero yo se que los que saben del tema estan de acuerdo conmigo...
@tariztegui Very fascinating. I was trying to find something else while I stumbled upon this. I was looking for what might have been a Mayan or Aztec styled temple. It had serpent-like windows carved so that a number of illuminated serpents would appear on what looked like a hollow inside? Thanks alot if you respond to this.
En realidad, los Mayas expresaron un poema de sabiduría en el descenso de Kukulcan durante el equinoccio de primavera y otoño. Pue, es un hecho que todas las culturas antiguas que se asentaron en México y en Anahuac, gozaron de un aúge cientifico en donde desarrollaron un complejo sistema de computo basado en 4 diferentes sistemas de numeración, combinandolos para alcanzar la perfección. Y así inventar el concepto de "ciencia-religión", lo que permitio su asombrosa magnificencia !
Amigo, este año el propio dìa del equinoccio no se vio absolutamente nada en Chichen Itza, debido a un frente frío, yo estuve ahì y miles salimos desilucionados de no poder ver a Ku Kul Kan. Por lo demas el sitio es impresionante, increible la sabiduria de los Mayas!!!!!
Maravilloso! Yo estuve allí hace 10 días. Uxmal es ciertamente más hermosa y no son los cientos de puestos que venden de todo y la ruina de la religiosidad del lugar. De Palenque es un sitio arqueológico maya de todo el mundo con más encanto de México.
La representacion del calendario en la piramida y con los efectos especiales es increible, los 364 dias mas 1, la finalizacion del calendario tiene un misterio, talves prosiga un nuevo siclo pero ellos nunca lo escribieron como tal, solo que el quinto sol comienza.
@kyonsuzumiyakim History can be cruel sometimes. Still I have to stand in awe of a place like Chichen Itza. There is nothing to compare it to in my country, the USA. When I was there our guide who was half Mayan was very interested in the Mel Gibson movie because it was done in the Mayan language. So there must be some pride in their native language and culture. I think you are right about the Spanish influence in Mexico. The movie stars like Selma Hyak are more European looking.
I agree with the "like going to hell"...my husband and I BOTH had a very uncomfortable feeling the minute we entered the grounds. The blood shed in this area was extreme to say the least. The guide explained the rituals and acts that would scare anyone.
me encanta méxico lo adoro me siento orgullosa de ser mexicana y de verdad disfruto viendo estos temas en mi clase de historia , es una lastima que ya la gente joven y los p......de los del gob no se interesen por lo que vale la pena rescatar y quieran parece gringos sin cultura
@chilen000 Por qué dices esto si los Mayas fueron una de las más brillantes culturas que ha existido en el mundo.. Yo estaría orgullosa de compartir el mismo continente con un país como México que tiene semejante historia.
hola amigos como saben este 2012 es el ultimo en que aparecera la serpiente por que nunca mas coincidira el sol con la piramide por que el movimiento del universo cambiara completamente asu que sera la ultima ocacion que se podra ver
This is one of the most impressionant cultures of all history, not only of "mesoamerica", but human race... im gonna be in chichén itzá smoking some weed and practicing meditation... yeah! hail maya masters!
It's a great explanation, but the graphics do NOT hold up! I just watched a video by the Smithsonian which showed the actual build-up of the shadow in which all the serpent's 'humps' rose up gradually at the same time, from base to top of the rail. This video with the shadow gradually descending the staircase is bogus, if you watch the clouds don't change at all!
The Mayans never spoke of the end of the world. They marked that date as the end of an era and the beginning of one new. The change in the person.
Thank you Jose. People want to believe any ridiculous thing. The end of one calendar does NOT mean 'the end of the world," does it! It means a new phase is coming
When they mean "the end of the world" it means that things are destroyed in order to get rebuilded.

This place was amazing when I visited this year. Was really glad I got to film this area and add it to my channel.
This site was perhaps the most impressive I've ever visited - anywhere in the world. Fantastic, I was fortunate enough to visit when it was still permitted to climb to the top of the largest temple/pyramid.
Wonderful experience.
of course they would forbid doing that. Lucky you!
This is the best video on this topic, far better than people who post about it with no information at all. Thank you for making it!
It´s not only in that place. Also occurs other effects in the sun in Dzibilchaltun, Uxmal, Mayapan at least,but do not have the promotion that Chichen Itza has.
Beautiful!!
Wow! We have go back again to witness the equinox. Thanks for the share!
Been there and 'El Castillo' still fills me with awe. For the earnest key-seeker: José Diaz Bolio has written imporant works on the Maya's, Kukulkan and more. Thanks for a great video.
Just came back from Chichen Itza, I only wish I have seen this video before, very clear, very informative. GREAT WORK! Acabo de volver de Chichen Itza, lastima que no oude ver este video antes, es muy informativo y claro. GRAN TRABAJO!! Muchas gracias!
es algo sorprendente e interesante la la vida de los mayas, ademas de que es un orgullo para los mexicanos, visiten chichen itza.
Wonderful video! Thanks so much for adding it! My best, Moppet
que padre se siente ser mexicano......it feels awsome being mexican!!!!!
Jajaja
Spent a day here in the mid 1990's. One of the most amazing and powerful experiences of my life. Glad I made the trek in a small plane from Cozumel.
I have been there 3 times . climbed 2 . saw the light show once .
We went to cancun and this was my favorite part. I would have rather spent the week at the hotel here in Yucatan than in the resort we were at, i was so impressed with this and in complete awe.
Gracias!
Yes and I can't wait.
exelente! información

Espectacular
The Yucatán peninsula is one of the most amazing places on earth , my family is from Merida , my grandma always tells me story’s about the Maya
was für tolle Aufnahmen ! Super !
Gee, I thought it was going to show the actual descent of the light......
It is incredibly hard to find good footage of the event.
It did, look carefully starting @ 3:04, it’s sped up, because who’s going to hang around for 5 hours to watch it?
thank you
Estuve en Chichen-itza y me sorprendió la cultura maya vayan no se pueden perder de ver tan importante cultura.
Amazing, trek, it looms from the ground up!
It give you the feeling of awe, it seemed like every visitor had the sense of it.
1.2 million vistors a year, the Mayans had a very structured civilization.
All of the terrain and drive to it is jungle straight out of "Apocalypto".
I find this very cool! :)

@chairde
I second this! The people there are so kind, especially the Mayans.

I've been there and its awesome
Been there three times, climbed it twice. Quite amazing...
The yucatan is so cool =) so many amazing archaeological sites... you could spend a lifetime exploring and never finish
I am really proud to be Mexican, my ancestors were amazing, and just because Mexico isn't so great today means that i can't be as remarkable as my ancestors.
Mexican ancestor is europe....

Chichén Itzá es la ciudad Maya más impresionante, maravillosa y hermosa.

Woooooo 🇲🇽😯😯👏👏👏
Vaya me gusta la forma en la que piensas. Yo pienso lo mismo!!
muy buena adaptacion para los extranjeros que no tienen la mas remota idea de lo que habia aqui..pero yo se que los que saben del tema estan de acuerdo conmigo...
does that moving shadow at 3:02 happenes 2 times a year?
@tariztegui Very fascinating. I was trying to find something else while I stumbled upon this. I was looking for what might have been a Mayan or Aztec styled temple.

Mind popping
Jose what do you think will happen there on December 21, 2012 the Mayan Prophecy?
In Mexico in the state of Yucatan

been there. it was kinda freaky going down those steps
Maravilloso! Yo estuve allí hace 10 días. Uxmal es ciertamente más hermosa y no son los cientos de puestos que venden de todo y la ruina de la religiosidad del lugar. De Palenque es un sitio arqueológico maya de todo el mundo con más encanto de México.
@tariztegui yes
¿Cómo se llama la música de fondo?
HOLA alguien sabe como se llama la cancion que esta al fondo?
The place I visited long time ago
Mother Nature/Universe a simple world focus for all of us
que lindo me encantaria conocer chichen itza en persona y queda en yucatan
Eu acho muito bonito o desenho da serpente feita na escadaria da pirâmide,e também o som feito pela palma na frente da pirâmide
En donde puedo encontrar videos así de iguales, mismo formato He visto varios pero no anoté sus nombres.
Puede ser en: vimeo.com
That´s the one
La representacion del calendario en la piramida y con los efectos especiales es increible, los 364 dias mas 1, la finalizacion del calendario tiene un misterio, talves prosiga un nuevo siclo pero ellos nunca lo escribieron como tal, solo que el quinto sol comienza.
why the equinox only on that place ?
ups perdon chichenitza esta en cancun o en yucatan no se me podrian decir
@theresxhope i went a few days ago and i think 95 bodies were found. and 80 of those bodies were young females, between the ages 8-14.

You can see a video of the serpent that is more clear on other videos a serpent clearly shapes 😯
I agree with the "like going to hell"...my husband and I BOTH had a very uncomfortable feeling the minute we entered the grounds. The blood shed in this area was extreme to say the least. The guide explained the rituals and acts that would scare anyone.
Really? I didn't, I thought it was fascinating and loved seeing it. Luckily I went when people could still climb the steps.
all those who go to chichen itza leave cursed
I was fascinated with the engineering but the strange feeling was very real to both of us. The buildings were absolutely undeniably amazing.
David L lucky!! 😢
I was there. It was like going to hell and back.
Hell and back ? Explain.
There needs to be the full 5 hour long video to witness this whole event. On youtube
@@joestitz239 incredibly hard to find any footage of this event.

@chinoreloko Pero la pena es que fue casi todo eliminado de la historia por los catolicos.
Claro, esos imbéciles no entendían y prefirieron imponer un dios humanizado al cual lo privatizaron para manipular a la borregada.

It's a great explanation, but the graphics do NOT hold up! I just watched a video by the Smithsonian which showed the actual build-up of the shadow in which all the serpent's 'humps' rose up gradually at the same time, from base to top of the rail. This video with the shadow gradually descending the staircase is bogus, if you watch the clouds don't change at all!
