Chichen Itza's Mysterious History Of Sun Worship And Human Sacrifice | Legendary Locations

[@bigfacts1914]

I climbed this pyramid when i was 17. The cold bone chilling energy i felt coming from inside that pyramid after i got to the top Changed my life FORVER.

My favorite host- Josh Gates. He adds more thrills, more surprise, more suspense about any legends. I just love his show"Expedition Unknown ".

[@SkeletonYuth69]

Ever since I was young I was very drawn to Aztec and Mayan culture...feels like home/paradise in a way.

[@dnajournal4321]

You enjoy the child sacrifice? Disgusting.

[@SkeletonYuth69]

Go figure...deleted your comment lmao

[@Impaled_Onion-thatsmine]

That they were forced to migrate out of Europe and Africa during the 8th century during the construction of medieval churches, forced to build their own. Fell back into a tribal slave state parallel to the medieval period in France, after the roman period in italy. Not that good but impressive if this theory is real.

[@McKeeNJackson]

It was once a paradise i believe. Just with some human sacrifice here and there. It’s a beautiful history in my opinion lol I’m proud to be a Mexican

[@Koraeffect]

When I visited chichen itza my skin tingled and I felt at home. It was a 3 hour drive from Cancun but it was sooo worth it. I wanna go back soon❤

[@Woodencityblocks]

Now they have the Maya Train which is way more convenient.

[@silvermainecoons3269]

Both Chichen Itza and Tulum are amazing and beautiful places. I visited it when you could still climb to the top (it’s off limits now because it’s really dangerous). The ruins in Tulum are right on the beach. I can’t wait to go back, such magical places.

[@dangre00]

Tulum is a beautiful and peaceful place. Although I was in awe of Chichen Itza, it has a dark, disturbing tenor about it. It was almost unsettling.

[@silvermainecoons3269]

@@dangre00 Yeah you’re right now that I think about it. I remember riding in a Jeep through the jungle to the site. It’s was a dark, long and twisty ride that gives one lots of time to think about human sacrifice. 😳😱 Tulum ruins are just straight up magical, just not as notorious as CI.

[@tori-loo]

Why is it so dangerous at the top of that one? Surely just as dangerous on the Nohoch Mul!

[@dangre00]

@@silvermainecoons3269 So spot on. It's almost indescribable the ominous feelings at Chichen Itza.

[@dangre00]

@@tori-loo Pure tourist numbers. Odds become ever increasing someone will fall down and break their crown.

[@bobalanadventures2024]

Enjoyed your video! We were in Chichen Itza two days ago. It is a fascinating place to visit. The Mayan dancers at lunch were incredible.

[@bellacarow3605]

"it is not chicken pizza, not chichen itza, its chichÈn itzÁ". (a local guide, mayan descended, taught us how to correctly pronounce the name of the city with this little rhyme. he was so much fun, very passionate about his heritage and the temples.)

[@brendaslama2216]

Love Josh's delivery

[@jackmehoff6302]

I climbed up there when i was in 8th grade. I didnt know its off limits now. Also climbed the pyramid at uxmal

[@bigfacts1914]

I was 17 years old When I got to the top and went inside that door there was code bone chilling energy coming out of the inside of the pyramid. After about 2 minutes I felt like I was about to have frostbite and needed to get back into the sun. It was 105° in the jungle that day. But as soon as you stepped into the shadow of the doorway of the top of that pyramid it was cooooooooold. I've travelled to Chicago Washington DC Missouri some of the coldest places in America New York Michigan... Been through snow and ice storms that thru out the power ... I've NEVER felt a cold that felt like that. I could feel a vibration, resonance,a frequency tuning me in 🙏🙏🙏ALL PRAISES TO THE MOST HIGH .

[@anlyncenters94]

I won’t be there for the equinox but I am going at the end of October this year and my excitement is unreal..

[@darrencarson7189]

[@donrobertson4611]

[@daguroswaldson257]

I've been there to both Cancun and Chichen Itza. Beautiful places. Plus, I greatly admire the Maya people, minus their pagan worldview of course.

[@hubertrobinson8825]

That's a beauty Josh indeed they were some of the most intelligent peoples on earth but you missed to mention one of the countrys that is now part of the ancient Mayan empire that's Belize is located East of Guatemala and South of Mexico that's where one of the crystal skulls was said to have been found and the famous jade head at the Altun Ha ruins you should visit there sometime

[@adriennel3480]

I love learning and exploring!!! It’s history if your faith is just that then you will look at this as learning another’s and allowing your mind to explore!! There is so much to learn instead of staying complacent!! I am not their faith … beliefs etc but I am one that is open to realizing that Alllll minority’s were hoodwinked by whom we say … ??!! Colonizers that had no place doing any of the stealing they thought was OKAY!!! Now say what you want but them people steal,kill and try to possess what was NEVER THEIRS FROM JUMP!!!!💜💪🏾💜

There are still some people believing in cult, worshipping false deity, offering human sacrifices, & these are against the teaching of God.

[@SunilKumar-ez5ez]

Mayan people are mentioned in Mahabharat epic .

[@mtorngren15]

How clean is the water of the sinkhole?

[@mss6530]

Was thinking the same thing there’s hella bodies down there that water is filled with blood for sure and when she said it fells magical ur feeling death

[@cynthiabuttry6549]

The water pool is unclean with skeletons on the bottom and shouldn't be swam in at all.

[@polyboroides2615]

I believe the Mayans inherited such sites as Chichan Itza, not build them. When you look at the pyramid, it seems like the steps on each side were added at a later date. They are not built in to the main construction, but added on.

[@blastedontape]

i guess they dont care, but my dna has been traced to one of the maya victims at this location. So a few of my ancestors were sacrificed there.

[@vincenthaegebaert1854]

Am I the only one who thinks "Thrill-Diving" into a sacred well is tacky?

[@berkeley8988]

Tacky? Yes and also really bad for the diver spiritually

[@slava789]

Just came from the tour. Some tourists managed to pee from the top of the pyramid and write their names on the walls. So they had to wrap up the climbing. Very impressive but not very spiritual for me, cause looks like many humans have been sacrificed here.

[@Mexicano1768]

That's the spiritual part 😂😂

[@carlosabrego7987]

[@blarney9757]

I wounder if that statue depicting a person in an almost laying type position cradling a round object is really a symbolic depiction of a woman showing how her unborn child has been removed from her body and was removed & taken by aliens. It's interesting that this carved statue is at a that site & very close to a Pyramid that's said to have been developed by aliens and the whole connection with Myan Culture and together from what we know know about these ET beings and there possible influence on our Species for a very long time.

The history of the indigenous peoples in the Americas is much, much older than a few thousand years. The Hopi people tell that they arrived in the America’s about 30,000 years ago when the continent that they were living on, Lemuria, sank under water. They claim to be the ancestors of the Maya. We judge the Maya, Aztecs, Inca’s and others on the traces that we find. But when we dig our way from the present to the past, we must know that the Earth is suffering from a cycle of seven recurring natural disasters. That is told in the Popol Vuh. These disasters create a cycle of civilizations. There are four primitive civilizations, sometimes mentioned a sun or world era. The next civilization lives in the fifth sun. This becomes eventually a high developed civilization that disappeared 20,000 years ago due to the next recurring, thus predictable but inescapable disaster that is caused by the ninth planet in our solar system. That planet orbits our sun in an eccentric orbit hence it is only a short period close to our sun and its planets s it crosses the ecliptic planet at a very high speed. This high developed civilizations has built sturdy monuments all over the world like Chchén Itzá and they must have buried knowledge about themselves and the world history deep in the ground. High in the mountains they have built shelters or surviving places for a selected number of people. Like Machu Picchu in Peru. The Aztec sun stone is a warning for this event that is known as Quetzalcoatl, Tonatiuh, Xiuhcoatl or Nibiru in other regions. Much more details about this cycle of natural disasters and many images can be found in an e-book. "Planet 9 = Nibiru". Search: invisible nibiru 9
