Chapter 282 Caves
In the past, Fang Hong believed that the one in the sun was the sun god, and the one in Fangzheng was a vampire. There was a reason and it was correct.

The etiquette of the ancient Maya was very complicated, but the whole thing was reflected in the sacrifice, not in the interpersonal communication.

The ancient Mayans believed that the sun was about to age and they would die, so they invented many rituals to worship the sun.

Of course, who knows if it was an act of deliberately reducing the slave population because there was no food?It's like the Europeans in the Middle Ages couldn't afford to eat. Just like the Crusades, they had too many mouths to support them, so they just died a little.

Therefore, the Mayans were very easy-going in the process of communicating with outsiders, because they themselves did not have such a set of etiquette for interacting with people.

It's like, when they are offering sacrifices in the temple, if you go to the temple, no one will stop you.

Fang Hong waved to the three people from far away, and the three seemed to communicate for a while, and then they didn't know how to deal with it.

Fang Hong stepped forward and greeted him in extremely simple Spanish.

One of them nodded and pointed to the broadcaster.

Fang Hong spoke Spanish for the camera, and the Mayan who knew Spanish seemed to be asking if he wanted to shoot, but Fang Hong couldn't understand him, so he just repeated the word shoot twice.

The pronunciation of yes in Spanish is West. Fang Hong asked twice, and the other party nodded and said West.

"They allowed me to shoot, but they haven't asked if there is a charge for shooting at their residence. If so, they will pay." After all, they are shooting at people's homes.

The three of them took the lead, and Fang Hong followed. They walked through the forest and encountered a partridge flying by. A Mayan raised his blowgun and blew it at the sky, and the partridge landed on the ground.

Going forward, I saw an open stone cliff, which is the cave.

"Karst caves are underground caves formed by the dissolution and expansion of groundwater along the fissures of soluble rocks. The scales are different; the shapes are strange and strange. There are many strange landscapes in the caves, such as stalagmites, stone pillars, stalactites, stone mantles, etc. Karst caves are the dissolution of water. The long-term results of erosion, water erosion, and gravity. Karst cave landscapes are widely distributed in the southwestern provinces of my country and Funan."

Large caves can accommodate many people. There are also many cave scenic spots in our country, and the small caves cannot be entered by people.

The opening in front of you is very large. Just entering, you can see a lot of cave geomorphic features, including stone pillars and mantles, and there are fewer beautiful stalagmites. The reason has been mentioned before. The weather is hot and the water evaporates quickly, which is not conducive to Stalagmites grow.

A pot-like thing appeared in front of him, but it was huge.

"I saw this huge pot-like thing supported by many stone pillars. A very common landscape in karst caves, the stone pot, is due to the strong turbulence at the top of the cave, the increase of water pressure, and the dissolution. The amount is larger than other places, thus forming a curved shape concave to the top, which is called a stone pot."

The accumulation landform is the essence of the cave landscape. The accumulation of gravity water is the main way to form the accumulation landform. A large number of dissolved soluble rocks accumulate with the continuous falling of water droplets, forming many colorful wonders.

Fang Hong looked at a tiny bamboo shoot in front of him: "I don't know if it's illegal to break it off."

"Brother Gun, are you planning to sabotage?"

"How can it be? The impact is so bad. I came here with the mentality of protecting the karst cave. When you travel to the karst cave scenic spot, don't go to the stalagmites. Those are things that have been formed for hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of years."

Stalactites and stalagmites, because of their structure, have annual rings just like big trees.

It is formed in the process of day after day and year after year, and it is inevitable that there will be differences between before and after, so it is a concentric circle structure.

In general, stalactites hang upside down, and stalagmites are on the ground, both of which are cones. After a long time, they merge into one and finally become thick stone pillars.

But here, the stone pillars are very thin, which shows that the rocks here are more likely to be piled up and down.

"The ladders we saw in front of us are all a little wet. They are not artificially excavated, but edge stone embankments. They are created by nature and made by gods."

Just like Sun Wukong saw the Water Curtain Cave, there are all kinds of belongings in it, which are all created by nature, so the author of Journey to the West must have been inspired by the Water Curtain Cave after visiting a very beautiful cave.

"Akkuyi, Amodo, Gaga."

"You can shoot, during the day. At night, leave."

The Mayans living in the countryside or cities are no different from ordinary locals, but a small number of people living in caves are different.

Fang Hong asked: "Can I film the scene of your sacrifice? Filming, sacrifice, and the god's residence."

Fang Hong knew that his grammar was wrong, so he said a few important words separately.

"There is no sacrifice, there is no sacrifice today."

Every nation is the same, it is impossible to offer sacrifices every day, whether it is burning incense and worshiping Buddha on the 15th day of the lunar new year, or worshiping on Saturdays (some churches are on Saturdays and some are on Sundays).

Therefore, the sacrifices of the Mayans also have time, and it is impossible to sacrifice when there is nothing to do.

Fang Hong sighed: "What a pity."

"Brother Gun, hurry up and see how they live?"

"What can I do?" Fang Hong raised his head and looked at the space at the top. It was blackened a lot, and even the surface of some stalactites was black, indicating that they had lived here for some years.

"Brother Gun, ask about the Crystal Skull!" Many fans of unsolved mysteries are asking.

"You don't need to ask about the Crystal Skull, I can answer it. This is a scam."

First of all, in the Mayan carvings, stones were used to hit stones, that is to say, hard stones can be carved on softer stones, and details can be painted on those stones with strong plasticity and low hardness.

The hardness of the crystal is about 7, do you know the concept?The hardest human bone is the tooth, with a hardness of six points, and the hardness of the hardest tooth in the world is only seven.

The hardness of stainless steel is 5.

If you want to carve crystals, you must have alloy drills or even diamonds.

The so-called crystal skulls are all modern handicrafts, because there are no such things in the ancient Mayan records. The first crystal skull was discovered a few years after the Mayan city-state was discovered.

It was not found in the ruins, and many crystal skulls appeared later, and they were different. Some were made in the shape of BJ's ape-man skull, some were complete skull crystals, and some even had the structure of a crystal skull. It was completely carved out according to anatomy.

That's definitely not something the Mayans could do.

The idea is very simple, if the cranial cavity is made by carving, then you have to drill in a small hole and then knock.

First, the high hardness of crystal does not mean that it is strong. Like glass, it will shatter when hit hard. Second, the tools of the Mayans are stone diamonds, which are more used for making fire than for carving. Even if the Mayans had iron drills, it would be difficult to carve crystal skulls.

The Crystal Skull was a mischievous invention, then imitated by countless fans, and turned into an inexplicable puzzle.

Because most of the world's puzzles are deliberately and actively created by humans, so is the Crystal Skull.

The Mayans made fire, and the Mayans baked food.

The Maya’s way of firing pottery is very primitive. Of course, it’s more advanced than sun-baked pottery. They also have charcoal-fired kiln technology, which is much more advanced than many Pacific islanders’ fire-fired pottery, but it’s just a stop here, and 5000 years ago, the method of firing pottery in our country was the same.
