Thanks for bringing this fascinating manuscript to my attention and explaining its significance. I learn so much from your videos about familiar masterpieces and unfamiliar works of art. Your channel represents the best of public education. Easily accessible, easily understood, and filled with deep insights into art and history.
I learned how to count in Mayan and even got a little astronomy lesson! I've so enjoyed the way this playlist continually surprised and intrigued me - this is a civilization I've taken for granted and have appreciated getting some exposure to. 🙂 Page 6 continues to depict harrowing and terrifying figures, so that tracks. The Mayans were ahead of their time, lol. Another Smarthistory playlist bites the dust - I can't believe it. I think this was the last one for the chronological lineup, so I'll be exploring where to jump in next. I'm sure there's much more for me to learn and love.
oh gosh yes, there are 1100+ videos all told. Plus more than 3,000 short essays! We are looking forward to seeing where you go next! Plus we are making new videos. I am taking a break from working on one right now.
@@smarthistory-art-history Look at how prolific you guys are, I love it. Keep up the great work. 🥰 From what I've seen glancing the remaining playlists, it looks like I'll have a few vids per list and then just work my way through the recent ones I haven't seen yet. I'll keep going as long as you guys do. ❤
There is a channel called Ancient Americas that makes some very good videos about pre-Columbian peoples. He's actually just made some about the Maya. If you are interested in knowing more about them you should definitely check them out (although, they are long).
In general, we all can see how artificial intelligence can create the most stunning images from "nothing" now, could an artificial intelligence reconstruct the missing parts of the illustrations in a better way than what an artist could? Have anyone tried to let AI "put back" missing pieces of artwork?
@@twonumber22- yes? We can ask AI to make a picture of a dinosaur playing guitar, as photography, painting, aquarelle or whatever, we can ask AI to write a novel, in Ernest Hemingway style, should be really interesting to know if AI could be teaced to complete ancient art for us

The Spanish intentional burning of Mesoamerican books is truly one of the biggest cultural crimes in human history
Without a doubt

I'm so excited about the prospect of it being used to learn forgotten languages and writing.
