Haunted Maya Ruins of Xunantunich - Belize

[@ItsMeCheryl1231]

I have been to this site twice once in 2004 and again in 2009. Absolutely beautiful! We were told the people were rather small and the steps were made larger so the people would have to crawl up them. I don't remember the exact reason, but I believe it had something to do with submission and/or keeping the head down. (Our guide told us, but I have forgotten)

[@larrysepicmovies5044]

It made them CRAWL UP as submission. I was there in 2000.

@@larrysepicmovies5044 Thanks Larry, I thought that was it.

[@jacjes7856]

Was there in 2012 and was amazing.

Fantastic Mike! I’m watching your back catalogue and it’s all just pure gold!!!

[@WanderingWolf]

Thank you so much Nikki! I’m a little embarrassed of all the older content but I’m glad to hear it’s being enjoyed! 😂

[@tifahmerchant]

I actually really enjoy and love watching your videos :) #peace #love and #light

[@WanderingWolf]

Thank you so much and definitely appreciate the support!!!

[@mostfunnestchannel]

That is well done video, the drone footage really helps show the scale of the place. I love that they still let you climb.

[@WanderingWolf]

Thank you! 🙏 I hope that doesn’t change as far as access to getting to the top. Many other places have.

@@JP-dz7zu you need some kind of permit I saw someone that just brought a drone having it taken away at the airport

[@morsaviajera]

Really cool information! Thanks.

[@WanderingWolf]

Absolutely! Thank you so much for watching and supporting!

[@Lakota185]

Pretty there not just temples but Portals!

[@junipersnow1]

Good one...Check out all these foundations on these structures, all the oldest ones will have Megalithic style foundation stones also found around the world, Peru, Egypt, Cambodia, Turkey, literally everywhere around the world. Mostly serpent culture, Pre History is getting as interesting as traditional history, like Mayans and Inca. Thanks

[@WanderingWolf]

Yes! It is evident that cultures in every part of the planet have been building on top of older cultures, and those cultures on top of even older cultures and on and on! Even in some of our most modern cities there is evidence of this, even in America.

[@junipersnow1]

@@WanderingWolf Cool, I was down there in the early 90's ...Talk of pre-history was pretty much non-existence back then. I think we are pretty close to solve the mystery, letting the truth out organically is important but it seems now is the time that a lot of people are interested in who shared our Earth before or with us. Thanks Guys, fun stuff, stay safe

@@WanderingWolf if you are really interested in archaeology, then check out Time Team. They started out as a British TV program 20 years ago!

Another great video, so interesting. Thank you

love thi vidoe, as im about to do a presntation in class for this site.

[@WanderingWolf]

Awesome! So happy you enjoyed and thank you for your support!

[@larrysepicmovies5044]

I never understood why it was LOST as you can see it from the hwy driving towards it.

[@gillynova]

I'm actually surprised they're cool with you droning the area! Thought it would be banned

[@WanderingWolf]

They weren’t....we had to use stock footage for some of our videos in Belize. Everything in our Belize drone video is our footage though.

[@gillynova]

@@WanderingWolf ahhhh okay gotcha!

[@WanderingWolf]

@@gillynova haha.....we tried! We always try to get our own content, but some places are super strict!

[@brianakrutsinger2756]

Please help!! I am traveling to Belize in June and cannot decide which ruins to see Laminai or Xunantinch? Which are more impressive??

[@WanderingWolf]

I was partial to Xunantunich, plus there is more to get into in that area as well. I put out more videos on our travels in that area, Belize Raptor Center, Ajaw Chocolate and Lower Dover….all alot of fun. Thank you so much for watching and supporting!

[@kristanebejerano3283]

They are both impressive.its best to hire a guide to fully understand the history instead of saying "i think" kristane edwards here a local tour guide from Belize price ranging for guided service here is $30US. Get to see know learn and take pictures for memories.

[@WanderingWolf]

@@kristanebejerano3283 Excellent advice for quite a lot of travelers! Thank you! However I actively avoid tour guides as it is never conducive to filming the way we do and I prefer to study up on places and explore on my own! Part of the adventure. Also, never be afraid to share what you think….if your wrong someone out there will almost always correct you and then you’ve learned something new! Thank you for watching and sharing!

[@gabrielmasseur4944]

Quer belleza, que bien por las personas que pueden subir a esas piramides, ya que en un futuro tambien puede estar restringido el paso.

[@larrysepicmovies5044]

The reason they "plastered over" the frieze was so it could be studied 50, 100 or 200 years from now, when the Mayan language and culture will be better understood. Can't put it in a museum, so "preserve" it in place.

If you lost in the ball game that he mentioned its the winners that lose their life in a ritual sacrifice

Xun antunich, Ivo Antunić

[@thomaswilliams8167]

Take those spirits home with you.

[@WanderingWolf]

I pack light, only carry on so just no room for any extra baggage I’m afraid.

[@brendapearcey2158]

it was if you WON you were sacrfied, they only gave the best to their gods.

[@SheshNaaga]

Snake Dynasty = Nagas

[@thomaswilliams8167]

Horror, horror i bet you wouldn't be so enthused if you were being sacrificed and eaten there.

[@WanderingWolf]

My enthusiasm would be at a much lower level in that scenario.

[@thomaswilliams8167]

So who was in charge of stripping the meat off the bodies of the sacrificed.Because they ate the sacrificed.

[@WanderingWolf]

Check Wikipedia

[@thomaswilliams8167]

Those places are cursed

[@WanderingWolf]

I think I talk about and mention that in the video! Thank you for watching and supporting!

[@sikiescordova1826]

ppl don’t believe in the spiritual world 🌎 🤣 if they only knew who controls the spiritual realm.

[@thomaswilliams8167]

Yes these places are historical, but consider the murder,human sacrifice and cannibalism.

[@WanderingWolf]

Of course
