Interesting, yes, but there are so many speculations in the conclusions to the finding and imagined event that interpretation is almost unreadable.  While the original paper unveils how these conclusions were reached, many seem to be leaps of faith.  Why a lead photo of Kukulcan at Chichén Itzá rather than showing the actual Guatemalan site?

I was a little confused as to how this was a the "end of the maya kingdoms reign".  There is, it seems, a dynastic shift. But culturally, things continue. The city doesn't collapse - it actually enjoys a building boom. 

good, I thought it was interesting

Of interest.

Tim is, of course, far too modest to suggest the madaxeman podcasts, so I shall.

I remember we called in and went down the ladder one year when we were on holiday in the area. I confess I never knew it was shut
