Engineering An Empire : The Maya: Death Empire.
I watched this on the International History Channel this AM. Many facts of the Mayan design and construction process of their cities and monuments were interesting. Hidden passageways and chambers within the pyramids for example. Their understanding of mathematics and geometry, astronomy, and other science was beyond their time.
Then I realised their entire Empire was on the Yucatan peninsula...the area impacted by the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs. Coincidence...or was there some remnant that drove them...much like the Black Obelisk in the movie "2001-Space Odyssey"? Much like the metallic meteorite that exists in the black cube in Mecca!
Time will tell...2012 is almost here.
