For a Maya geek like me, and a great fan of David, this was extremely informal and entertaining. Thank you.

Thank you so very much for the fantastic lecture. Sure hope there are many more. I was a Peace Corp volunteer in Honduras1966-1969. Visited Copan many times during those years. Willis Martin Guanajuato, GTO , Mexico

Thank you David for your very interesting talk. It was nice to see you again

Thank you for an absolutely fascinating presentation. I hope you will do more public lectures like this in the future.

This Western Authority is most compelling.

When I heard a cat meow I thought it was my cat Rambo and I gave him his favorite kitty crunchies to keep him quiet while watching your video. Lol... Turned out it was your cat on video. He got a treat via KZfaq.

Fantastic lecture, David. I viewed it twice! It's interesting how the Maya would dress up as Teotihuacan warriors in rememberance/respect for their power and influence.

Thank you so much for the expansions!

Very helpful to those of us trying to understand these very complicated relationships.

Loved this lecture. Learned a lot. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Fantastic. Thank you.

As always, it is a pleasure to listen to your clear explanations about the fascinating history of the Maya world...love it all!

What an excellent explication of your new understanding of the incredibly far-reaching effects of The Entrada. This talk was incredibly interesting, well illustrated and supported, and truly a delight for myself and my homeschooler. It is amazing how much more is known now, than when I studied precolumbian art and archaeology (UCLA '01). We knew that Teotihuacan had far reaching influence, but as I recall the interpretation was more of a cultural hegemony than an actual conquest (although there were questions about the origin of K'inich Yax K'uk Mo based on isotopic analysis of his teeth). I will be supporting Boundary End in gratitude, and sharing this resource with other long-term homeschoolers, because having access to this level of scholarship is just such an incredible gift! Thanks again, and stay healthy.

Nice talk thanks!

Thank you for sharing your expertise online, Dr. Stuart! 🙏🙏🙏 I would love to know why the word "calumtay" (I'm sounding that out) is difficult to translate.

Acceptable assertions only. Academia ... elevates the 'very knowledgeable' to control what you should know.

Thank you for the great presentation! I would like to note that if"m not mistaken, the later research has shown that the tomb in Copan - so-called Margarita tomb- you referred to, belongs to woman, probably wife of K'inich Yax K'uk' Mo'.

Very informative, ! thank you, any suggestions on any books or online data regarding glyph/letter translations?

Incredibile. Why did the Teotihuacanos start building over the war serpent platform around that same time.?. Maybe that guy got too big for his britches and they kicked him out!?

A lot of similarities to Tlaloc.

"will be a problem for many years to come" simply tells me you have no solution so why watch?
