Chapter 1313 The Legend of Ancient Civilization
"Yes, this lady is right, very correct. We are descendants of the ancient Mayans and the only community that retains the ancient Mayan language." The middle-aged man suddenly said in Chinese.
Guo Xiaohai couldn't help but be slightly surprised, and Wei Bao said, "Boss, Wang Qiming is the leader of the island, and he is also the only one among these people who can speak birds and Chinese language."
"Are you Chinese?" Guo Xiaohai couldn't help asking. It's not that there is no possibility. Now, there are Chinese people doing business almost everywhere in the world, and there are also many people doing business in Pacific island countries.
Wang Qiming shook his head and said, "I don't know anything about my distant ancestors. What I know is that we are descendants of the Indian Mayans. Our ancestors independently created a brilliant and splendid civilization in the jungle of the American people. That is, Mayanism, which is now keen on studying. In the early 18th century, our last Mayan city-state was destroyed by the fleet of Spanish explorers, and our tribesmen were wandering around... My ancestors wandered to Honduras, and finally relied on hard work to live a good life. I also received a good education. Later, my grandfather led us to migrate here at home, because here, the tribesmen who live our common ancestors have our roots..."
He said it calmly, but anyone could feel what a magnificent and tortuous history of civilization rise and fall. Several people nodded deeply and understood why Wang Qiming understood several languages. However, in addition to Haruko, Guo Xiaohai only knew a little bit from the book "The Mysterious Mayan Civilization". The others were even more confused. If they didn't know these, they always felt strange and distrustful towards these people. They were always worried about the three big ships.
So Haruko tells, Wang Qiming gives and adds it, and the two briefly introduce the rise and decline of Mayan civilization--
The ancient Mayans were the oldest and wise tribal race among the Indians. The Mayan civilization was named after them. It was a great civilization created independently by the American Indian Mayans under the conditions of isolation from the ancient Asian, African and European civilizations. Their ruins were mainly distributed in southeast Mexico, the Jucaden Peninsula, Panama, Guatemala and Honduras.
The Mayan civilization is an amazing achievement made by mankind before Columbus's appearance in the Americas 6. It has made extremely important contributions in many aspects such as science, agriculture, culture, and art. The Mayan civilization's construction projects reached the highest level in the world and were able to carve and process solid stones. Through long-term observation of astronomical phenomena, the Mayans have mastered the solar eclipse cycle and the movement laws of the sun, moon and Venus; carvings, painted pottery, and murals all have high artistic value and are called "Greece of the Americas".
The most powerful one is that their mathematics is in the dichotomy system, and now uses the concept of "zero" taught by the Olmeks, and they master a high level of mathematical and astronomical calendar knowledge. How accurate is the Mayan calendar and astronomical knowledge?
They divided the year into 18 months, and the estimated year of the earth is the sky, while the modern technology calculates it as the sky, and the error is only o.ooo2 days, which means that the error of 5 ooo years is only one day. Their calculation year of Venus is 584 days, which is only 7 seconds from the modern calculation of 5 o years.
The Mayans mastered the concept of "o" at least in the 4th century BC, 8 to 1 ooo years earlier than the Chinese and Europeans. The Mayans created the 2o carry counting method, and the number calculation can be used until 4 o ten thousand years later. Such huge astronomical numbers can only be used when modern interstellar navigation and calculating the distance of the starry sky. Thousands of years ago, the Mayans used slash-and-burn plantings, covered their bodies with leaves, and used cocoa beans as a medium to exchange objects for objects. Can they use such a number calculation?
The Mayan calendar can last until 400 million years later. The calculated difference between the year of the sun and year of Venus can be accurate to four digits after the decimal point. It has its own text - hieroglyphs composed of 80 symbols and graphics, with a vocabulary of up to 30,000. It has exquisite carvings, paintings and art. However, before the birth of this peak-level civilization, the ancient Mayans lived in a tree cave to collect it for a living. Why did such a primitive tribe suddenly produce such a high level of civilization?
There are even more strange things. On June 5, 1952, people dug out a stone slab with figures and patterns in the ruins of a temple in the ancient Mayan city of Palenque on the Mexican plateau. At that time, people only regarded this as a carving of ancient Mayan myths. In the 1960s, after people entered spaceships, those American scientists involved in aerospace research suddenly realized that the carving on the Palenque stone slab turned out to be a picture of an astronaut flying a spacecraft! Although it was patterned and deformed, the air inlets, exhaust pipes, joysticks, foot pedals, rudders, antennas, hoses and various instruments of the spacecraft were still clearly visible. When the photo of this picture was sent to the American Space Center, aerospace experts were all amazed and unanimously believed that it was an ancient spacecraft.
This is incredible, but it is a solid fact. Therefore, some scholars put forward a bold hypothesis: in the distant ancient times, a group of highly civilized alien intelligent lives may have come to the tropical jungles of the Americas. They taught various advanced knowledge of the Mayans in the primitive era and then floated away. They were considered by the Mayans as gods. The incomprehensible advanced knowledge in Mayan culture, especially the knowledge in astronomy and calendar, was taught by aliens.
However, in the 8th century AD, the Mayans suddenly gave up their highly arduous civilization and moved in large quantities. Each central city they created terminated new buildings, the city was completely abandoned, and the bustling big cities became deserted. The Mayan civilization disappeared overnight in the tropical jungle of America.
The mystery appears and disappears. In addition to the ruins of civilization, they also have the most famous prophecy, which is the story told in the movies "2o12" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark":
Maya made a prediction based on its precise astronomical calendar that our earth has been in the so-called 5th Sun Age. So far, the earth has passed four Sun Ages, and at the end of each period, it will be thrillingly destructive.
The first Sun Age was Matraktili mat1acti1art, which was finally destroyed by a flood, and it was said that the flood in Noah's Ark.
The second solar period is Ehecat1, blown by the "Wind God".
The third Sun Age is Queyavelo t1eyquiyahui11o, which is the path to destruction due to the rain of fire falling from the sky.
The fourth Sun Age is the zodellik tzont1i1ic, which caused a large earthquake to perish under the raging rain of fire. Some people say that the extinction of dinosaurs is this time.
