Watch part 1 here: • Dzibilchaltún, Mexico ... . Part 2 of an exploration of Dzibilchaltún, a major Maya site near Merida in the Yucatan of Mexico. It is the oldest Maya site in the Yucatan dating back 4000 years and has a Sacbe (sacred white road), huge pyramid structures, a large Cenote, and is aligned to the March and September Equinox sunrises. In part two we look at the main site consisting of impressive constructions that cover much older temples , as well as stelae or monoliths that could be from an earlier culture.

It was great to get in there with you and see the site close up. Going around the back side to see more, and looking at the gated part was so cool. When you briefly focused up at the ceiling, I wished that you could have zoomed in on the stone in it's non weathered form, just for comparison. They looked like big stones!

4000 years old pushes it back into the Minoan era. How is the site dated please? Any serious excavations been done there? Thanks so much, Thailand Paul

24:23 i want to go through :o) the original plaster is on the stones with chips underneath the plaster, so in this site can we deduct that this site was built with chips of stones between the blocks for the plaster to adhere to, not to indicate reconstruction by archeologists to stabilize the site.

5:30 note the brick snakes all over the upper story. Also i was wondering at sites in Mexico city the little chips of stone between the megaliths was suppose to illustrate that the megaliths were reconstructed by archeologist to show what they thought the original construction was like, and they are all over this site? so how much was reconstructed here?

17:44 looks like it was remixed from a malta type temple, there the alignments were to the sirius just like mayans caked a new layer on their pyramids once every sirius cycle about 50 years, and have a 'sleeping goddess' just like malta (Iztaccihuatl mountain, also Inchcailloch in scotland) or magical architect dwarves like the picts ('papar'/'pents' not to mention the wester ross pictish slab with a huge a** Coatlicue framing the underside, this is right up your alley if u plan to continue the kells type vids just throw in inkan tokapu and those dogons murals/sacred deco that looks just alike somehow if possible :D), etruscans and sumerians didnt operate with huge prly geopoly blocks like this

the surfaces of all those blocks around the hole at 17:45 need to be scanned for hidden images ... you really can't tell even when they are at your fingertips ?? When you re looking at solar sensitive sites shadow play is almost always in play why did shaman carry mirrors? .. so they could make and read the shadows .

‘’Dziblichaltun = “finish those that I am telling you (first).” That is as an instruction to a single male during work on a project, including construction project. The first part of the word, ‘D is an abbreviation from the word “wode_i/wo_de_”) which is a full command form from the Verb ‘to finish’ addressing in a masculine singular. (The fascinating past from a different angle!)

Have you been to Comalcalco, yet? Very peculiar site. The only one made of fired brick. Hope to visit one day. There are thousands of these sites in Mexico that most people dont know about.

Amazing discoveries you are making! This is the best video i've seen on utube on ancient mysteries! What a site! OMG! The small blocks in the mortar work are snake like, wrapping around the pyramids, representing the world serpent wrapping around the continent of the dinner plate Earth. RE the stelae, maybe baal/bull/ball worship! I'm starting to see that there were many different viracocha. The longskulls of the black sea, and the ancient Irish. This is very ancient irish like in terms of construction. The stonework resembles very strongly that of Dark Age Irish churches to me! They put these little stones in between the big stones. It's almost a dry wall kinda technique of construction! 24:21 corbelled like interior construction. It's the pyramid builders from Europe!

From what point of reference were they writing BC dates, and why would they use the abbreviation BC, i really don't understand, does anyone know?

@johncunningham6113 3 жыл бұрын

They didn't write AD / BC whey wrote dates about leaders, wars, and what was happening, but if you add the numbers up, and they go back over 2000 years then your in the BC numbers. they didn't know Christ. :o) or there would be lots bigger mysteries going on here...

@@johncunningham6113 Yes but from what point of reference is the number being counted, as 500 BC, is the count backwards in history from our reference point, the number decreases to until 0 when it becomes common Era and we add years which bring us to now 2021..... So when they wrote 500, what did they base it on, you say add the numbers up, what numbers? why does Hugh say it says BC, I know they didn't know Christ, they also didn't know English, but I'm just going by what the man said in the previous video that the stele in the grounds of the museum says 596BC, which he says beans 596 year before Christ.

@@deathstarHQ Bill the central Americans had calendars an they had a written language that they wrote on their stile, most of their names are date names like 4monkey, or 9jaguare and these equate to dates on their calendar, then if you find a skeleton like a named king , and you carbon14 date it. then you look at their calendar that rolls around every 56 "not sure" years or so. this is also the reason that the pyramids are so big; each time their calendar rolled around they would rebuild their buildings over the old ones... but generally you can add the dates back too 2500 years CE, and that leaves you the equivalent of 500 BC. i'm not talking down to you, i just have no way of knowing what you already know, and i'm not great at explaining :o)
