| 2023-09-08 |
| So many parallels. Coincidence? I think not. [Wikipedia] In archaeology, the classic Maya collapse is the decline of the Classic Maya civilization and the abandonment of Maya cities in the southern Maya lowlands of Mesoamerica between the 7th and 9th centuries. At Ceibal, the Preclassic Maya experienced a similar collapse in the 2nd century.[1 |

| #5 Generally speaking, when a near stone age society collapses, nobody bothers to take notes, cause that would mean engraving it in stone. The only people who could leave a record aren't going to say something like "the king screwed up" because they work for the king, and they know he does things like rip somebody's heart out when he gets upset. |
