Naachtun: the Forgotten Mayan City | FULL DOCUMENTARY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- Naachtun is the last city of the Maya golden age. We know little about it and archaeologists have started excavation just a few years ago. Isolated in the middle of the tropical forest of Guatemala, the researchers are trying to understand how it can have survived for almost 200 years after the collapse of the Mayan civilization in surrounding cities, and in doing so, to shed new light on the history of this people. Using ambitious resources, including 4K HD cameras, drones, and cutting-edge graphics, the result is an exciting adventure combined with an in-depth scientific study. This documentary promises the account of an epic saga.

I'd happily spend the rest of my life traipsing through the jungles of Meso-America to find these sites. My God, what an adventure!
Make it happen!
I would like that too.
I have many artifacts from Mexico and the American Southwest
Do not misuse God's Name
@@SLjansvrensb. it's your god, not ours. we do what we want, just like you do. see? we're equals!
Please keep making world class documentaries.Thank you from California.
I am not an archeologist, by profession I am an electrical engineer, yet I find the work of the archeologists digging Maya sites as immensely interesting to find out their way of life and their death. The story of Naachtun and the death of Tikal was so absorbing. The dedication shown by the archeologists in finding out the truth will be a guide to the future of archeology. The life and works of the Mayans corroborate to the celebration of life on earth and what enjoyment they show.
A wonderful historical coverage documentary about Maya civilization Naachtun city inside the heart of jangle...thanks for sharing
Very interesting. Would love to see more of the artifacts and learn more about them.
Completely agree I would love to see more on the artifacts actually I would love to see all the artifacts from this site and many more
Are there speculations from where the builders of these cities originated / migrated from? Thank you for this interesting documentary. Cheers from Seattle!
I'm relieved SLICE isn't using _that_ AI-generated voice. The one with the nasal snarl which is too widely used. So much so that I'd just move on instead of watching. Even if the title sounds interesting. That's how much I loath _that_ AI voice!
Great work! Thanks for sharing
Thank you !
A massive 20 year drought in Egypt,Nile River was a babbling brook,Recoded in a Scribes house.This drought would have caused many civilizations to collapse all over.
Who is the jaguar girl at aroumd the 37min mark??? Wow!!❤
The French guy is talking loud in the helicopter, so the dubber spoke loud 😂😂😂
I don't understand why they don't just use lidar
Too fast. They would lose their jobs in few years. I don't understand why this much work just to understand the past. I think we should use all the effort to the future of the mankind.
@jay10242 You'll never get where you're going if you don't know where you've been.
@@alanalaney6182 we know enough. There is no reason go to hunter gathering times. What ancient civilization has gave to modern society?
probably because its expensive beyond belief
@jay10242 ...so do you suppose modern society sprung up unaided in a vacuum? Culture and society are developed over long periods of time, and everything builds on the proverbial 'what came before'.
Barber: "Hey, it's been awhile. What kind of haircut are you thinking you want?"
Me: "Archeologist, please."
Why are they touching skeletons with ungloved hands? This can't be real archaeologists because trained professionals would know better. They're polluting the evidence.
It's central America. They do things with more ignorance down here. Not that northern Americans aren't ignorant, just to be fair. Good point.
These are French archaeologists. Are they being sloppy? LOL
The way these stories keep changing 😂
Our culture should take measure of what happened to the Maya. Deforestation, drought, climate change, political divisions, and warfare all can lead to the downfall of a civilization. Sustainability is crucial.
They always say Teotihuacán, but they still are nameless. The Mexica gave the city its name much later. Just who does the stone describe and who marched 1000 km to do the conquering? "Place of Cattails," (equivalent to Nahuatl Tollan)
hey Maxcrow, there is a YT on that conquest. found this tho: Siyah K’ak' led a Teotihuacan invasion that defeated the native Tikal king, who was captured and immediately executed.
when your expert starts saying things like "perhaps even", they should stop. they are not there to speculate as such; we're getting a single person's opinion as "data", so it's quite wrong of the 'expert'
It's been my theory for years now that deforestation was the Mayan downfall. Still even after hearing the thoughts of that brilliant young lady I believe her. But I still think they took too much.
I have a question, we are told tropical jungle soils are thin and barren, when the vegetation is cut down, they become sterile and useless yet the Mayan sites are wildly overgrown seems contadictory, shouldnt they be desert-like?
I know that in the Amazon basin they have Terra Preta its an amazing dirt it's man made and to this day we don't know how it's made. I'm not sure if the Maya had it but if they did that would definitely answer your question. If you never heard of it I highly suggest you looking into it.
Lied to? Lol. Dirt with added broken down vegetation is usually very fertile.

Pyra-fire, mid-middle. The original structures were high pressure, high temp containments producing acids for heavy metals extraction and refinement? Modern scientific publications say yes. My research supports date of construction of the Nile Complex at ca 14 ka.
Amphetamines?
I can imagine the last residents leaving to the modern towns and were there was jobs another way of life they called us savages but we had a life that people today want to live off grid eating what we hunt what a cultivated everything natural connected with nature with the stars the rivers respecting nature and living along side nature we were more advance they were the savages
So, why did they only have 60 days to do this? Monsoons?
Why don't they use chainsaws?
Too loud
Guess work under sweating conditions makes for tall tail😮s
I loved this newest Mayan City unvieled of its secrets
I would if i may toss in an hypotheis on way the layouts of the original buildings in each city sight.
These earlier arrivarls Masters of thier envoriments had senses few of us use to feel the lay lines in the land and the power nodes
I have proposed this to serveral thinking Archeologists who prefer this to the current hoge poge of competing ideas some of which are far flung
One day people will realize that humans have been in the Americas for hundred of thousands of years wake up archeologist
"humans have been in the Americas for hundred of thousands of years". What did you smoke today? LOL
why only 60 days of exploring?
Rain/hurricane s.😮
El mirador means the lookout, no need to use modern day spanish language because it s not native anywhere, and is a lack of respect for the locals and natives, same with names like san francisco o los angeles( original names are SANT FRANCESC AND ELS ANGELS
I would like to know if there was deforestation caused by middle ages ship building or roman Pheonecian ship buildingthat ledto a decrease in rainfall world wide, I wonder about the american west deserts possibly expanding due to that drought
Lidar should have been used 1st
Zamayalis? 🤔
2:15 Did you mean archeologists and not architects?
Interesting that whenever we regard ancient civilizations belief patterns or systems of thought we refer to it as “cult “….
3 families could create large variety offspring
Who's mowing the lawns? 🤔
Let’s keep AI out of music, books, films…. In fact, couldn’t we sort of forget about AI entirely?
At 38:28 the Shahman holding the Jaguar has a little beard going on lol to me that is weird because the Indigenous peoples didn't have Facial
Hair or so that is what I have always heard. You got the whole thing with the Bearded gods that taught the indigenous people of all the America's from Mexico to peru. So shouldn't it be an anomaly??
A couple chin hairs doesn't re-write history....
@@PeterChamor4 I said it's an anomaly I didn't say anything about rewriting history lol I truly hope the rest of your day gets better and you see things a little more positive. Being negative takes to much energy. It's just a comment something I noticed it's truly no big deal.
Not an anomaly. Looks like an asian beard. The very same Moctezuma is described as having a small beard, definitely not as thick as the europeans, but prove that indians had facial hair; not much, but others were hairless. Pubic hair was also very scarce, or completely absent. You have to see the beard in some chinese men, with long, strait, but sparse beard nonetheless. That is a characteristic found in mongoloid peoples in asia.
mysteries for 'architects' to solve? just more of the same every building is a temple. becomes running in circles spending millions of dollars for the same ole.
sounds like Mayan civilization was run by conservatives.
Nah
Seems like democrats with their oil burning global warming schemes 😅
Ahgtun Germans. We are real.
at 10:45 he is lying. he make a pause: bean, corn and aaaaaaa cotton. why should i watch all if it begins with a lie?
What do you mean?
The guy can’t pause and think about his thoughts? Wut?
They were growing a hell of a lot more than that.
41:21 in video. Explains the destruction currently of the United States.
Our dear Archeologists and anthropologist, early civilization was built not by warlords but by peace loving people of extreme wisdom. Warlords came after it was built and flourished. Came when the civilized order was disrupted, giving rise to disordered and brutality. All ended like that, brutality after civilized.
Disruption? Catastrophe of biblical proportion of extraterrestrial origin. Example? Comets fly by earth littered debris burying animals people and cities. Open up opportunities to survival the fittest, war lords.
Guess why all archeological finding are covered under debris? and further by vegetations grown on comet debris?
Warring civilization has only one ending. Example? The Mayan civilization.
