About Tlalpan -- That burial may have coincided in time with the Mayan Preclassical, but as far as I know there are no Mayan sites that far north. Much closer was the civilization that built Teotihuacan and its massive Pyramid of the Sun, as well as an even closer rival at Cuicuilco. None of these peoples were Maya.

[@lizdierdorf]

I agree, it is more likely that the Tepanecas (the original residents of Tlalpan) or the Otomies that came after, were the ones who made this mass grave.

[@agyos]

Correct. No Mayans in this part of Mexico. Time is pre-Aztec, but definitely not Mayan.

Regarding the Vindolanda hand, from what I have learned from anthropology at university and years of watching Time Team (😂), there are two problems with the analysis in this video. 1) the majority of "Romans" in Britain were not from Rome. They were Romanised British peoples. 2) because of this, these people often incorporated earlier Brittanic ritual practices. The most significant of which was the ritualistic burial of important or sacred objects or remains in ditches. To claim that the hand was randomly discarded based solely on the fact that it was found in a ditch is likely completely evidence to the contrary. It is significantly more likely that it was purposefully placed in a ditch, emphasizing its importance.

[@Textile_Courtesan]

[@jray5363]

It seems rather conceited to assume everything found was ever important at all. Somewhere in this house is a porcelain hand with the middle finger extended. Also a monkey scratching his head made of clay. Sometimes, an artifact is just the scattered belongings of a child, or a discarded bit from a would be artist, or a blacksmith practicing his trade for personal amusement.

[@semaj_5022]

@@jray5363 it also seems rather dismissive to assume nothing is important at all. That's why archeologists utilize whatever history and context we have of a location and it's people at the time in question to draw conclusions about their finds. Does that mean this hand definitely was related to ancient Brittonic ritual practices? Not necessarily, but it does mean that and other ideas based on the area's history should be considered when determining its origin.

The opening ad for 'Magic Spoon' really raised my curiosity...being a 'realist' about what I like to deem 'natural' vs 'extracted' vs 'synthetic ingredients.

(LOT of potential allergens in that little box o'goodness there!) Peanut flour, Chickory Inulin, Monk Fruit, allulose (enough synthetic sweeteners and fibers to keep a disabled 90-year old as regular as a toddler!)...it may taste good, but I think I'll stick to 'Shredded Wheat'...Glutin is nothing but 'Wheat Protein' found in the husks of the grain...something we've been digesting for over 5,000 years...and that (per two doctors I have spoken with about it) less than a fraction of 1-percent of the world is 'actually allergic to in any significant way'...it was a great 'health food marketing ploy', but avoiding wheat husk also avoids a LOT of nutrition that you now have to replace...over fears of an allergy you probably don't have...that for a couple hundred dollars, you could get your doctor to actually TEST YOU FOR if you have that much indigestion or bloat to make you suspect it!

Magic spoon, no sugar but still has sweeteners ..... that for me still counts as sugar.

I think the story regarding the hand is a little bit off. A piece of bronze like that would be worth quite a bit of money to someone at that time. 100 aes would equal one Denarius. The Denarius was the silver coin that was something about the size between a quarter and a half dollar. The aes was about equal to the weight of 2 American cents. That hand contains 83 oz of bronze, that is about 340 aes. Give or take. SO 3 Denari and 40 aes. When you consider that when Denarius would equal a day's wages, that's just about half of a week's pay. So my thinking is that a Roman, figuring all was lost, probably tossed this into a ditch where the pagans would not find it.

Pre-Aztec, but definitely not Mayan.

4:30 Simon, they eat gerbils and hamster 🐹 like we eat chicken 🐔. They usually have a few gerbils and hamster 🐹 running around.

please note that carbofibers are actually sugar and fibers. No sugar only means they did not add extra sugar, but that really does not mean much

People wonder what's the point of historical archeology but it's a perfect opportunity to compare the traces the events left with the accounts written by people who may have had reason to hyperbolize or to leave things out of the account.

Aye, a traditional upside-down head...

I like to think that a particularly dissapoointed roman soldier felt very bitter and decided to Yeet the useless hand to show what he really thought about the gods. Maybe after losing a hand.

Just one thing: in central Mexico it was most likely Aztec and not Mayan remains that were found. The Maya are located in the south and south east of the country and Central America. Tlalpan (even the name of the place itself) are 100% Aztec or pre-Aztec.
