I am in Palenque right now. Come visit the ruins and spend a day in the rain forest. Then, afterward, you can stay in one of the many luxury resorts minutes away from the ruins. Amazing place and awesome people.
OMG, I am sure a lot of people after watching this video just want more. I mean both of them are great but David Stuart has this quiet passionate luxurious way of transmitting the fabulous wonders of the Maya people. David explanations of Palenque are marvelous, i hope and i am sure many people too, would wish somebody somewhere, will do more videos of David Stuart´s precious descriptions of mayan archeology. He definately is a door opener to the mysteries of those amazing mayas. Thank u David.
Gracias a Dios que los pinches Españoles no destruyeron estas obras de arte.
The city of Palenque was known by more than one name. One of them was Tok Tan, meaning Cloud Centre. Perhaps it was named that way because the city was build on the edge of a mountain. Another name is Lakam Ha. This one is much more appropriate I think. Lakam Ha means Great Water. In and around Palenque are various springs and creeks that flow through the forest. The Classic Maya name for the Palenque 'empire' is called B'aak. B'aak means 'bone' or 'captive' in Classic Maya.
Shalis Morthanien cool info. Thanks. I’ve been there and it was amazing. Magical.
Yes I can't wait to see for myself...
No, it was Shika la Dikha.
The maya were knowledgeable of the secrets of water. I think Great Water can also be translated as Great Light or Great Love - both aspects of water... Palenque was one of the main centres of the Classic may so these would fit...
Some beautiful waterfalls there as well and the decendants of the Maya live in nearby villages wearing their hair and clothing in traditional style.
On my way for the 4th time -first time in 1971 - again in 1986 and about 10 years ago
Looking forward to revisiting it with all the new insights from this video ... and other research
Wow, how did the site look like back in 1971?
this was an awesome video for me, i missed Palenque though. now that i have watched this video , i feel i am working hard to get back now... just going to even the most modest mayan ruins can send wonderful shivers down my spine
Beautiful! I visited Palenque in 2011!

I think that the palenque "astronaut" rappresents the dead King Pacal lying across his throne, his royal seat and the back throne is a wooden cross shaped like a totem with something that looks like a serpent around it.
David Stuart is the man! Juicy Juice! His father is ultra-cool too. People who get to get near him are the luckiest to me. He's really an inspiration and he has driven me nuts since high school and I'm in my forties. Man O Man Man on Man!
I got into the Maya because of a book by George Stuart that I bought from my neighbor at a yard sale for 50 cents. Because of that I became fascinated by The Maya and this fascination has taken me all over Mexico and Guatemala to visit ruins and learn more. I hope to one day meet David Stuart and thank him for having a father that opened up a wonderful world to me.
Well, isn't that special? You must be very proud of yourself... Glad that you are so rich that you can travel as you please; lucky you! 🤮
Homo sapiens got the Leakeys - the Maya got the Stuarts. It's a great priviledge to find a video of these two gentlemen, amid all the non-sensical videos about the so-called Mayan prophecies.
I have been to the site 2 times. I love Mexico. Once it was around Xmas time and it was so hot.
Fue sorprendente ver a David dibujando y entendiendo glifos a los 13 años. Otra mente brillante! Y emocionante llevando las cenizas de Tatiana Proskouriakoff a Piedras Negras. Thanks David!
What a great history of the Egyptians of Central & South America. Who knew! The Curators of this talk are fabulous, Many thanx! 😊
Went there on my overland trip from Mexico City to Panama City. Sundays were free entry! Guess what day I visited the ruins? Afterwards I headed for Belize.
ssesf Movies that sounded like fun! I wish I could go there one day.
very good job.
I recomended this book : Chronicle of the Maya Kings and Queens
“The last lords of Palenque“ is also a good book. It presents the perspective of the present day descendants of the Maya living where all the generations they descended from always lived
The tomb lid was of Pakal in his souped up space car.
amazing that Schlieman was there. Got to see Pakal's tomb in Mexico city, @ the wonderful museum there, while visiting Teotihuacan.
Great talk.
Nice indepth info and commentary on MAYAn Civilization. Bravo
stunning, I want to see more
Oh! Yeah! 👍
🇨🇦🇺🇸🇲🇽
Very much enjoyed this video, I just wished there wasn't an advertisement every 3 minutes, it kills the flow of the video
Dude, so annoying. Maybe 1-3 long unskippable commercials, but the constant interruptions mKe want to punch somebody.
I enjoyed this and learned a lot! Thank you!
awesome... I LOVE HISTORY..
Fantastic lecture
Amazing lecture. Most educational. Thank You.
Excellent. Thanks.
It looks much the same as it did when I had the experience of visiting in 1969.
Wow, was it more forested or was it mostly cleared out as we see it?
What exactly would someone dislike about this video?
At the 24:44 mark, I realized - didn't these early explorers know how to do a charcoal rubbing of these images and glyphs? Kids in preschool can do that.
Those Dummies didn't even know how to write a language or take a selfie...How Bow Da
@thedetective22 How did you come to that earth shattering conclusion?
I love your high quality videos, the views at 2:00 are amazing!
Thanks 👍
I saw a video a while back that was about a large artifact found in Pacal’s tomb It was sort of in the shape of a rocket thruster. There was a picture of it in front of the pyramid where they said it was on display for some months or maybe a year before being taken away. It looked like it was about 6 feet tall. Was it a hoax? I can’t seem to find anything about it now.
@Abu Dabu where is it now? I never see any mention of it anywhere except that one video. I’ve been to Palenque twice in the 1990’s and saw nothing about it even in the underground tomb where it was supposedly found.
Thank You, Wondrous Stuart’s!!!😘😘
Love his video! Tks NG
" Palenque" rocks!!!!!
VERY good and available for alll!
well done
I’m a proud to be maya descendent
i like this video so is great!!
wayy too short ! but very good, tx!
Very interesting.
Seems this was where Throth the Atlantien Priest King who survived the Great Flood(10,000-12,00 B.C.)went to build pyrimids.
& place the emerald tablets in the Halls of their Amenti,as in other pyrimid sites(Egypt conduit sites) also recived their cosmic esoteric wisdom of the stars,making King Pacal a true Star Messenger-among the South American Kings who held Sun High Tec. able to electrifiy Tesla way!His incarnation was Qusaqual,Palenque as other Mayan sites were great sites for these Star Messengers,& the Indians admitted they did not build these sites!
I been there and it’s magic, almost 7 hours in a car thru very very bad roads
EXCELLENT...
i am going to live there again, mayan ruins are that good. necesito mucho mas espangol. it took me 6 days and 1000dollars to see 5 sites and go snorkling? bring money for poor people and, nick-nacks, plus have a 1000 backup just in case. see Mexico City and Veracruz,,Campeche, Yucutan , bring your soul but be willing to pass up many people, for there are so many. the traffic is scary...sorry but thats true
RED QUEEN. Still wearing Jade jewels. And all her teeth. 🦷🦷🦷💋💀
Palengke is marker for Tagalog here in the Philippines
it's not marker, it's market la
Las figuras que estan al frente dan la impresion que son guardia que guardian los tesoros adrentro de el templo. y ellos le dierong tanta importancia que querian que el templo y la tumba estubiera siempre en guardia . A su principe Pakal .
There is a Indian channel called SANGAM TALKS that has a good video on MAYAN civilisation.
I will have to watch this thanks Nisha
How could they have made a photograph in 1787??
Didn't photography onlu get started in the mid 19th century?? Cival war photos were some of the first, I thought.........
The picture is from the XIX in Spain. The lecturer was referring to the history of the artifacts. At the same time he was showing a picture in which Heinrich Schliemann was posing with the director of the museum in Madrid with the artifacts in the middle of the photo.
True to that :)
mayas still exist...
The elite are still sacrificing humans. Yes.
yes, but most of them are very poor :c
@UNPACKED with Ja'Nese when i realize you said ... "we" i am scared dude
UNPACKED with Ja'Nese are you Mayan too because I am ☺️

Jaykee the Wolf: hey, luis. why you think folk don't bother building these structures anymore? i mean, what made them stop? disease?

HE HATES YOU !
Mayans=Math
@@Myohomoto called 0 the highest number
these sites must be protected-remember it was the indians themselves who cut down the whole scared Pine forest, so the gringos would stop coming to view the yellow monarch butterflys who migrate to Mexico on top of mountain once a year!
Never underestimite the actions of ignorance-among all life forms...Nameste-no offence, my mother held Hopi-Lakota-Chyanne
Scottish/Irish Spainard mix,while father was of Spainard/French,all of the noblitys who used their wealth to fund a new world,The Americas-thus here I am,a poor american-rich by these Historys of all our grand Past! Thanks to CZcams & wise archaeologilists!

The Indigenous people of the Americas are thousands of years older than previously thought. The Hopi history is written down in the ebook: The History of the Hopi from their origin on Lemuria. They say that they are at least 30,000 years old and are the ancestors of the Maya. Ancient texts, like the Indian Mahabharata and the Mayan Popol Vuh, tell us that the Earth suffers from a cycle of seven natural disasters. Those disasters are causing massive floods, earthquakes, firestorms and a bombardment of meteors every few thousand years. These disasters create a cycle of civilizations. One of these civilizations lives more than 10,000 years and reaches a higher level of knowledge and skills than we have now. Their civilization ended 20,000 years ago because of the next recurring disaster. Before they disappeared, they have built these huge temples all over Central and South-America. To learn much more about the cycle of civilizations, recurring floods, and ancient high technology, read the eBook:"Planet 9 = Nibiru". Search for: invisible nibiru 9
And the image on his sarcophagus shows him flying a rocket ship. Von Daniken told us that long before anyone else figured it out. David Stewart is lying through his teeth to keep people from knowing the truth. Lol. Palenque was the Western capital of the lizard people after they left Lemuria. Or was it Mu? Lol.
@@wfcoaker1398 wow the lizard people, did they came before the frog people or after
the bird people?
