Mega-Historical Re-Think, Take One..

Archaeologists have discovered the Popul Vuh (otherwise known as the Mayan Creation Story) in what is possibly the largest pyramid in the world, one of possibly thousands of pyramids in what was an ancient Metropolis known as Mirador. CNN has the footage.. Link to ATS forum. The frieze recounting the Popul Vuh predates the arrival of Christianity by 1000 years, so what will likely emerge from this new discovery will re-write much(MUCH) regarding what is known about Mayan religion and civilization.

These discoveries might accomplish several things:

A. The context of time and technology in Mesoamerica will come into sharper focus. The discriminatory mythologies of cave dwellers, native idiots, and the bleed-through of Americanized stereotypes of scalpin', rapin', and smokum-peace-pipes is done. These were urban dwellers whose societal structure was set up on advanced mathematical and astronomical foundations that rival our current understanding of same concepts. The level of their achievements should be respected and further explored, and now, with more awareness, they will.

B. The Spanish (supposedly) destroyed almost all but the remaining information on the Mayan Civilization. Hopefully, copies of formerly unavailable Codices will appear, possibly providing a Rosetta Stone moment, a spike in the information pool, and some more context for the entire 2012 Movement. (The Emmerich directed movie leads me out of the "Apocalypse" category, for some reason.. It's now become too mainstream to go down this way. At least, that's how I feel at the moment..). If no more texts are found, there will still be a massive information influx by studies of street configurations and placement and construction of Mirador's buildings.

C. The reminder to the Anglo sphere, that, when our European ancestors were still backwards, ignorant, and barbaric, mighty civilizations based on science and thought grew and thrived. The magnitude of Mesoamerica's reversal of fortune might have special implications for our (America, Europe.. "us.") immediate and long term collective future. Empires rise, then fall, and when they do fall, they fall hard. Did the Mayans ever think their time would end?

There also might be spiritual implications, dimensional discoveries.. The possibilities are wide open. This could be a threshold moment, the beginning of a wave of discoveries, causing a complete change in implications of what it means to be alive, human, and living on this planet..
