Movie Reviews of Mystery of the Maya
Movie Review: Great to View Along with Breaking the Maya Code
Summary: 5 Stars
Although it does not touch upon the dissappearance of the Mayan civilization, the Mystery of the Maya is a review of the great pyramids and the rediscovery of these ancient civilations. We see the development of archeology from the hand drawings from the early 19th century, to the incredible photography of the late 19th and early 20th century. We meet the people who had a lot of interest in their day for Mayan culture and how much of that information would be shared. We see the grave of one of the kings, whom we find in "Breaking the Maya Code" to be one of the longest living monarchs in all of history.
Some of you will recognize the stone covering his tomb. Some who claim ancient astronauts were here use this stone saying the character depicted is flying a space ship. Thankfully that is not alluded to, however, the actual discover of the tomb and how they lifted the makes you wonder, how did it get there in the first place.
Simple in some of its presentation, The Mystery of the Maya is a very good short subject movie that is informative and useful along with anything about the demise of the civilization.
