There is something glamorous and exotc about the words "lost Matan temple". At what point did this place disappear from veiw ? When did it get forgotten in the collective memory.?

Should Mexico ressurect the Mayan treasures ? I dont mean Mayaworld. I mean somewhere that intelligent adults could visit and contemplate life and mortality.

Yea I’m sure it sends tingles up your leg. A place where they sacrificed untold numbers of humans, probably mostly children.

It doesn't take long for the jungle to reclaim the land. In 20 years a city could be totally enveloped.

So perhaps you can tell us how they moved blocks weighing up to 100 tons, just as they also did in Egypt and Turkey and many other places, all around the same time .
Millions of cut blocks .

Who exactly taught them about this now forgotten technology and where did these smart arses come from ?
Were they from Tommy Tithead Land or just a bit further away?

BTW , Nunataks are often the Conspiracy Explanation among Sheeple who cannot believe that pyramids could exist in places like Antarctica . Let alone Bosnia - where also some are .

Well duh, it was the aliens that moved them using anti-gravity technology

Everyone knows that, I saw it on The History Channel.

There was a great show on the Discovery channel many years ago we watched with our son when he was young called "Life after people" that showed how fast this could happen

I think thee main thing or me is that they were building amazing cities while most of britain was living in mud huts and painting their faces blue.

Apart from the Romans of course.

Note this was 150 AD. Not bad. Humans can be awesome.

You know the Romans had a form of central heating by then. It only took the brits 2000 years to master it.
