Just bought myself some Viracocha art today in Cusco, Peru. All because of following Ed in the last few months. I wish I learned more about Mayan culture before I visited Palenque and Tikal as a 20 year old. But, that trip brought me here too. I am a mineral exploration geologist, and I find myself increasingly interested in how I could bring my knowledge and love of geology/mineral deposits, to the world of archaeological exploration. Thank you for the podcast!!!

Hi, Ed... First of all thank you for your time and effort in producing this series of informative episodes. I'm a huge fan of both you and them. I'm an archaeology geek for all things America (North/Meso/South) so finding your work has been a motherload treasure. Two of my most passionate areas of study are formative & terminal classic Maya, and formative Mississippian/Cahokia. (Also the peopling of the Americas/Paleo, but as you always say, that's another story) One of the many commonalities between the two cultures of Mayan and Mississippian that I've always found intriguing, as mentioned in one the questions on this episode, is the practice of both of rebuilding on existing pyramids/pyramid-mounds. I was a bit surprised you didn't mention that the Mississippians did indeed practice that as well. Perhaps you were simply thinking of "structures" per se. But the Mississippian practice, from my understanding, was to end one phase and enter a new. Thus, the archaeology indicates the ritual and literal burning of the old structure, then covering with fresh soil/clay and building a new one on top. I did a quick Google search to find a good example and provide a link to the finding below. Thanks again... Cheers! commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mississippian_culture_mound_components_HRoe_2011.jpg#mw-jump-to-license

The codex wasn't overly influenced by the Spanish. The Aztecs already had "European" customs. Odd that this is ignored here. They even recount the different kinds of people/races who lived there and arrived and left. Of course, this puts a black eye on the mainstream narrative. Can't have that can we? Also, the reason you are confused about their religion is because you don't take their stories seriously in the context of science. Aztec religion doesn't make sense to most people because most people don't listen to what they recorded. They didn't just write down a bunch of nonsense for fun. They recorded what they saw in real life. Once you factor in plasma psychics and cosmology, their stories immediately make sense. They tell you exactly what happened. It's not hidden. Otherwise thanks for the video. Keep up the good work, but don't forget to take the history seriously. These people were smart. Don't fall for the mainstream trick of making it sound like the Aztecs were just superstitious monkeys. They knew exactly what they were talking about.

Now of the belief humans came out of the Americas. Many examples. one example. Haplogroup X found around the today great lakes area and Anatolia. They had to be one people at one time both locations couldn't have been both their origin. The question then becomes which came first? The oldest human remains are now disregarded came from Louis Leakey Calico site and Virginia Steen-McIntyre Hueyatlaco (Valsequillo, Mexico.) Look at the reasons they where disregarded. Simply because in the words of those that removed their findings "we came out of Africa. If this was true. Then we would have to re-evaluate everything." That is not science

To refer to ideas and forces that the Nahua gave names to as "god's", is using western thinking to describe non western ideas, ideas that are not related or synonymous to monotheistic thinking. Teotl refers to a single mysterious energy that none can see, know or understand where it comes from. This is not a "god". Ome-Teotl is also not a "god", Ome-Teotl means dual energy which referred to the creation we can see and feel, hot and cold, positive and negative, male and female, life and death, etc.. The 4 forces produced by Ome-Teotl are sub-conciousness, consciousness, movement, and breath. They are not "gods" Huitzilopochtli refers to the strength of the human will, it is not a "god". The reason they use a humming bird is because the hummingbird can move in any direction, it can seemingly stand still in mid air, and it's beautiful. We can go on and on, but I think that's good enough to show you that people who still live according to the culture do not and cannot relate to your descriptions and tales of what our symbols and names mean and stand for. It would be wise to add to your description of the video that this information is western based, and not based on what the people and their culture accept or believe..

Thank you for addressing this topic Dr. Barnhart. Researching the pre-migration and post-migration Mexica concept can be difficult to navigate, and your explanation, sourcing, and expert opinion helps to bring some specific informational clarity to this matter for me. This concept becomes remarkably cool when we consider that Olmec archaeology also implies origins at Chicomoztoc, and that the earlier Maya presence in the region clearly shows a separate and independent cultural evolution pre-Olmec, predating the sudden appearance of Olmec in Mesoamerica. That’s 2000+ years of different cultures over time conveying a similar place of origins story. Essentially, the mythical site of Chicomoztoc becomes the lowest common denominator for most of Mesoamerica’s cultures over time, excluding the Maya. The Chichimecah culture also called this place of origin Chichiman, meaning “place of milk”, milk providing the origins of human life. The Mexica view the Chicomoztoc caves as the birth canal of human existence, also implying the origins of human existence into this world. The Mexica are documented to have described themselves as previously being Chichimecah to the Spaniards. Coincidence? :)

I aways wondered if the aztecs were descended from the mound builders in the southern US. Seems like they abandoned some great cities like Cahokia. If there was a major cold spell or flood.

@@archaeoedpodcast Gotcha was just curious, been trying to educate myself more on how the groups of indigenous peoples came to occupy the area and stumbled into some of those theories was interesting to think about. One of the main problems they brought up was an apparent lack of accounting for the peoples of NA so I guess that's where the lost tribe theory/theories was inserted. Something along the lines of Japeth son of Noah had a children one was a son named Meshech who's tribe/tribes allegedly fled the building of the tower of Babel to the unoccupied lands in the west, Meshech >>>> Meshechans>>>> Mexicans. The video I watched even compared Herbrew words to words that the tribes used like the original word for God or El What was interesting about your podcast is that you mentioned the Meshech peoples showed up later because the Aztechs are already occupying the land they traveled to, but you had also mentioned that they had evolved into Toltec like nobles? What exactly did you mean by that I'm not sure I follow exactly, or really know more about the Toltecs of which I believe I may have ancestry with.... and the origin story of the Meshechs they just migrated from South to North to South that's quite the journey from the rewritten standpoint but the idea of the previous worlds in insteresting. Huitcitlapoche was the one who gave the Meshechs their new identity after sacrificing the locals if I have that right? Loved your video on the cracking the Maya Code! Am trying to teach myself to read and speak Yucatec Mayan do you have any tips or is there a way to entry level start learning glyphs? Thanks for being so awesome Dr. Barnhart
