In the whole cave, in addition to the three men, there are some women and children, and there are no old people, or there are no old people who are too old. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And women's clothes are obviously better than men's.

Since it was the coldest time of the year in the area, they wore sleeved clothing that barely covered their elbows, and they wore something that they didn't know whether to call it a shawl or a blanket or a scarf.

There was a woman with a hair ornament and a hairpin made of unknown wood on her head, which was wrapped around a cloth and the lower end of the hair was scattered.

"Brother Gun, is this an ordinary Mayan outfit?"

"I don't know, the Maya don't seem to have a uniform style of clothing, so I don't know if it's their national costume or if it's just something to wear."

"Whatever...... Wear ...... Brother Gun, you summed up a good ......"

"Brother Gun, it seems that there is nothing to see, it's time to go, right?"

"There's no hurry." Fang Hong looked around: "In your life, how many times have you had the opportunity to go to the primitive tribe?" ”

"Primitive tribes?"

Fang Hong pointed to a mound of earth: "The charcoal-burning earthen kiln, first pile the firewood into a cone, then paste the thin mud, leak out the top, and then dig a few small holes below, light the fire from above, borrow the flow of air, let the fire burn to the bottom, and then seal the top and seal the air hole below, stuff for five hours, and burn the firewood into charcoal, this kind of earthen kiln charcoal burning technology is a matter of 6,000 years ago in China." ”

"Look at this, a small earthen kiln on a simple mound, firing pottery, and scrapping it at one time, is a technology 5,000 years ago in my country."

"Look at their weapons, look at their outfits, look at everything about them, stuck in the Neolithic."

In China, the first copper smelting began 6,000 years ago.

"They already have charcoal burning technology, they already have a complete technology to make fine pottery, but they just haven't developed porcelain technology, nor have they developed metal smelting technology, from the pace of science and technology, they stayed in our 5,000 years ago."

"In astronomy, they are indeed more advanced than us, they have two calendars, the overlapping cycle of the two calendars is fifty-two years, it is a reincarnation, and the two calendars corroborate each other to infer that they are the most accurate people in the world to calculate modern solar eclipses, but this is not science."

Very simply, as in ancient China, there were only craftsmen, no scientists, only technology, no technology.

If the ancient Chinese people did not have the view of the gateway and wrote all kinds of technologies in books, then science would have been born in China for thousands of years, but unfortunately there was none.

The same is true of the Maya, a loose city-state empire that did not take a step from primitive society to an agrarian civilization until its collapse, let alone anything else.

"We came on the way, saw the pyramids, saw the palace of the night sun. In the fifteenth century, the king of this small city-state slaughtered nearly 300,000 slaves to sacrifice to the sun. There are 27,000 corpses under the pyramid alone, and you can't convince me that this is a modern civilization and not a primitive tribe. ”

There are some things that don't need evidence to prove, such as the exchanges between the peoples of Asia, Europe and Africa, and a lot of things are happening very synchronously all over the world, even though the whole world seems to be unconnected.

To put it far, the wolf was sealed, the Xiongnu retreated, and then the Xiongnu squeezed the living space of the barbarians, and the barbarians destroyed Rome.

To put it mildly, the world entered the age of the silver standard at the same time, and the world entered the era of the gold standard almost at the same time.

In the 16th century, smallpox ravaged the world, and Europe and China invented vaccination methods at the same time.

Everything proves that the world is very connected, but everyone has not thought about it.

However, the Maya are different, and the Mayan society is very sick.

First of all, there is a problem in the ecological circle of South America, there are no bees in South America, there are no earthworms, crops cannot be pollinated by bees, and the land will not be turned over by earthworms after cultivation.

If there were earthworms in South America, the Mayan Empire would not have collapsed, and the land would not have been barren due to slash-and-burn farming.

With the trade between the Americas and Europe, earthworms followed the ballast soil to the Americas. The arrival of earthworms has almost returned the land of the Americas, and the fertility has skyrocketed, otherwise the Americas would have ended due to population pressure.

For example, there are no large livestock on this land, and the largest is the original camel. This resulted in the Americas not having wheels, although scientists desperately wanted to prove that the Maya had wheels.

But there is no physical object, you can't say that the circle in a mural is a wheel, maybe that is a cross-section of a winter melon?

The Mayan political system remained feudal.

After the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of the Western Han Dynasty, the feudal system has collapsed, so the ancient system of our country is not a feudal system, but a central imperial system.

From the perspective of democratic progress, first the primitive society - the city-state, then the slave kingdom - the republican of the House of Elders, then the feudal - empire, and finally into modern democratic capitalism and socialism.

The Maya stayed in the transitional period of the first and second phases, the slave city-states.

In addition to the first-class carving and astronomy, this nation is in the primitive faith, using a primitive social system, there is no democracy at all, and what is even more terrible is that they have forgotten about carving and astronomy.

Seeing them is basically equivalent to seeing the Hemudu people and seeing the Longshan civilization.

They are also less developed than the Maasai people, and not as good as the North American natives.

Anyway, the Native Americans of North America have learned to charter open casinos.

The humble murals record the past.

The fire pits are a testament to their habits.

Cave and solitary.

If it weren't for the fact that the modern state was built on this land, the Mayans would have turned back history in the direction of the Neanderthals.

But there's one thing they've done really well, and that's growing plants.

From potatoes, to peppers.

Although they are also primitive, their contribution to humanity is enormous compared to the rest of the world.

Potatoes and corn alone spurred the world's population explosion.

Fang Hong pointed to a painting on the wall: "Chili? ”

"Hmm, pepper."

"Do you have your own fields?"

The other party hesitated for a moment: "Yes." ”

He didn't even want to tell Fang Hong his name, it was normal for him to hesitate about this kind of thing.

"Can you show me there?"

"Yes."

On the way, Fang Hong learned something.

On the one hand, the Mayans believed that there would be retribution for continuing farming, perhaps because of the turmoil of the 10th and 15th centuries, or because they remembered the precepts.

On the other hand, some of the Mayans have become ordinary farmers in modern civilization, and even some intelligent Mayans have received higher education.

What Fang Hong saw was the struggle of a nation.

On the one hand, we stick to tradition, and on the other hand, we seek change.

Every nation on the planet has been suffering from such a choice for five hundred years.

Now it was the turn of the Zoe, and the Mayans made their choice.

Moreover, they are already making their choice.

"I have a question, do any of you still know how to carve?"

There was no need to ask about the language, the different dialects made it impossible to understand the foley part of the Mayan script, and a large number of books were burned by Portuguese missionaries, destroying the past of a civilization.

"Understood."

"Why not carve?"

"There's no need."

Fang Hong was puzzled: "Why is it not necessary, don't the skills you learn need to be inherited?" Your carvings will remain monuments in a few hundred years' time. ”

"Engraving is used to record splendour." This Mayan, who did not want to be named, was full of pain under the vicissitudes of life.
