Think of a world without any of the relevant theories from our ancestors. Assume we aren’t aware of any of the discoveries and we don’t have any inventions which our great scientists did in the past, trust us, it’ll be the oddest thing. In simplest of the words, the more we are aware of our origin, the more we can look forward. Such a beautiful collection of images and videos are compact within this article. You just need to go ahead and take a look.
The Project
The team of these specialists who are experts in their field of work was named as the Gran Acuifero Maya. The role of this team is to go beyond what humans have discovered so far and discovered what lies beneath the surface. In order to bring together the perfect team, many teammates came from Washington D.C. to do the job they love the most. And when they found what we are talking about here all their hard work paid off.
Unexpectedly Vast
When scientist located a third cave they never expected it to be this big that it turns out to be the largest flooded cave across the globe. It was in the biggest of the largest of the caves that the most precious treasure was hidden. The theories and stories that they told the world were just unbelievably amusing. But what exactly was this founding that eventually proved to be far more precious to be calculated a monetary term for?
Appreciation For History
The manager of the Gran Acuifero Maya project, Guillermo de Anda, explained about the discoveries as, “it allows us to appreciate much more clearly how the rituals, the pilgrimage sites and ultimately the great pre-Hispanic settlements that we know emerged. I think it’s overwhelming. Without a doubt, it’s the most important underwater archaeological site in the world.” Till now we’ve only told you about the caves now let’s get on to what lies inside these caves and why it can never have a price tag.
The Real Picture
The team is able to record around 200 different sites that are said to be significant and are as old as 15,000 years from now. This discovery is much more than everyone was expecting it to be. Although the caves in itself are so much informative and top of that these caves are filled with pre-Hispanic archaeological sites that are directly related to the ancient Maya civilization and mysterious plants and species. When we tell you what all are the things found by in the deep dark caves you’ll realize how much forward this civilization was actually.
Over 100 Artifacts Found
So far, more than 215 sites found by the scientists are not simple caves but around 140 of these contain evidence and traces of the Mayan era. It includes several man-made objects, in fact, a mask that’s said to be a replica of Ek Chaub, the Mayan god of trade. Well, the deeper the divers looked the farther in past they went, even the early age.
