Well hopefully we will see if this Boy is Right about his Theory
about a ruin being there .. in the Thick Niches of the Location,

and if he is right ?? I can see Science all around the world
are going to use his method.. to locate Possible Ruins ..

Didn't you read the rest of the thread
He's already been shown to be wrong, this claim was mostly hyped by the press on a slow news day


meanwhile, you are claiming that the Aztec Mayan or Incas are not genetically related and there is no evidence to support that.
Good luck with that one, you might want to do a little research there,

I do not ascribe to your method of cherry picking, you are holding up an example of architecture from one culture in the Americas and comparing it with the architecture of an old world culture.
What you are also doing is ignoring the thousands of cultures who don't fit your ideal.
you are ignoring the thousands of years between the two construction dates
you are ignoring the different usages
you are ignoring the different mythology
you are ignoring genetics
you are ignoring common sense
cherry picking at its finest, is also its most worthless

Does anyone have a link to what we currently understand as the Mayan constellations? Wouldn't that immediately answer the question of whether or not this kid is onto something?

Yes, I read the whole thread. All I saw were claims that the kid was wrong, or that the release of info was premature, etc. I did see a map of the Mayan cities in the thread, but I didn't see what I asked for, which was a link to a description of the different Mayan constellations.

something wrong with googling "Mayan astronomy"

Failing that Anthony Aveni is regarded as the global expert on that subject
You'll find a link to all his books here
