[@cozymonk]

How do you not have more subscribers? This is like a classic NatGeo doc from back in the day! Excellent footage and excellent information.

My wife and I spent quite a bit of time on the Yucatán & Belize. While in Tulum I spent a while with the guide who was a Mayan and he explained what happened. I was glad to hear most of the conversation again on this video.

[@ursulapaulfranz9024]

What a wonderful video, thank you.

[@yewfh-oz7in]

Outstanding short documentary. Compared to all the sensationalised Maya shorts, this is well researched, informative, and beautiful. Great work.

[@estrada5007]

Thank you for creating this video i really enjoyed how you included all ecosystem service

[@hugochannel5852]

First your channel is so underrated

[@kernwildlife]

Thanks dude, I definitely don’t invest a lot of energy into KZbin

[@ikongchin3088]

this is also my 1st time on this channel it won't be my last. BLESSED LOVE

[@youandmetheworld]

So true.

[@adrian111-]

My grandmother has Mayan blood she originates from Yucatán Merida and every time I ask her about the jungles or animals her eyes bright up and tells me stories that she could remember she doesn’t remember much because she came to the US young. She loves biology and masters in plants.

[@1fredricka]

beautifully documented and narrated. Thank You

[@Letmespeakmymind]

Amazing Documentary. You deserve more views!

[@kernwildlife]

Wow, thank you!

[@alexbenson245]

"Rainforests are the lungs of the Earth"❤

[@hattershouse710]

They really are not though. The oxygen they provide is used up by the animals that live there. So therefore the oxygen they provide never gets to other parts of the world, thus not making them the lungs of the earth.

[@edwardpincus]

Bravo! Well done. Thanks.

2:31 25,000 year old footprints found in White Sands New Mexico have pushed that date back by over 10,000 years at least! We can't keep saying "12,000" years ago and we now know it was probably several coastal migrations. There is evidence of early human occupation in Monte Verde Chile that goes back as far as 14,500 years BP. The ancestors of Indigenous Americans have been here longer than Western Europeans have even existed at all as a distinct population. They only begin to expand westward from the Anatolian Steppes with the earliest Agriculturalists around 10,000 BP.

[@theodoresmith5272]

No just no. First you can't carbon date footprints. Only something that was at one time alive. They tested material in the footprints but that has been shown to often be inaccurate. Next, your dates are wrong. The best new discoveries have been we see evidence of humans 18000 years ago in north western USA costal area around the colombia River. Next is monte verde all the way down in the bottom of Chile 14,800 years old. They didn't come across an ocean to get there.

That one farmer straight up looks Mayan

[@kernwildlife]

'Cause he straight up is. The Mayas never disappeared, there are millions of people in Central America and the Yucatan today who are direct descendants.

[@karachistreet]

i watched the whole video to find monstera in its natural habitat

[@theodoresmith5272]

Man this is a good production. Unfortunately i dont like having all the maya, at least 26 tribes, over an 800 mile, at least area, and several environments. Only the maya of the Yucatan used cynote. They lived on a coastal plane which is not rain forest. Maya clearly fell from invasion from the north. Penn University has a nice pod cast on maya and there classic downfall. Northern pottery and northern names become the leaders of the cities that were not abandoned.

[@xd1845]

ah, i was searching maya 3d tutorial.

[@westho7314]

Great audio & visual documentary. I especially enjoyed your covering the Milpa system of sustainable agriculture as opposed to the wasteful mono culture of todays wasteful farming. There is something to the non tilling technique of and planting & growing compatible plants with symbiotic relationships. Like the 3 sisters. Corn becomes the trellis that holds up the beans and squash shades the ground keeping it cool and holding water from evaporation. The Aztec's also had a unique growing system creating many small gardens built upon the lake water as islands to plant called Chinampas again like the milpa system of the Maya planting a variety of different plants used in textiles, food and medicine together in a symbiotic relationship.resulting in the ability to produce more crop cycles per year than conventional farming of today. Knowledge that the academic rocket scientists from monsanto have a hard time wrapping their toxic heads around and past mono culture farming and nurturing natural pest controls.

Why do you make use of drums and other music behind your presentation. That background music, etc. is hard to listen through and past. Those extra sounds are louder than the presenter. I'm distracted and turn off your presentation. How many of the rest of us also turn you off because of your conflicting sounds? Goodbye.

[@sycofya1677]

Not really, the music adds to the experience and vibe

I understand you have a very low IQ, but you need to understand that there’s climate change. Whether you believe it it’s man made or not, it has made life impossible. Just look at the pyramids of Giza. That whole area had rivers that no longer exist
