My professor who actually went to that site in the 70s and said they sacrificed too many bodies as well. It was the main issue but yes there were diseases, famines and civil wars.

So WHY did human sacrifice doom this city? Maybe it was a factor, but I'd like to know more of what the History Channel experts have come up with.

Dude the Europeans had visited the Aztec city which caused an epidemic among the native people.
But it's pretty normal to discredit the first nations of North America.

My theory: Teotewakun was built during the time of the Jaredites 😉 They are the first group of people arrived in Ancient America. Timeline: The Tower of Babel 😉. I'll my theory and clues here and the rest of research is up to you now 😉

this is going to a very sad place. history never stops reminding us how mean we can be to each other. will we never learn?

[lyndaring]

Babylon comes to mind ..man kind created these big monuments toward the heaven..and was stopped because there was nothing they couldn't do ..all the pyramids it makes sense now about the tower of Babylon ..it wasn't just one town or one place ..it meant world wide ..confusion and separation of knowledge and languages ..makes sense

Go deeper and find out who their creator is.

The history of the indigenous peoples in the Americas is much, much older than a few thousand years. We judge the Maya, Aztecs, Inca’s and others on the traces that we find. But before we dig our way from the present to the past, we must know that the Earth is suffering from a cycle of recurring natural disasters. That is told in the Popol Vuh. These disasters create a cycle of civilizations. There are four primitive civilizations. Sometimes mentioned a sun or world era. The next civilization lives in the fifth sun. This becomes eventually a high developed civilization that disappeared 20, 000 years ago. Then the cycle starts again. During the first 4 suns the people were guided by alien deities. Also at the start of the fifth sun. At a certain moment in time, those deities leave the people alone. Led by fanatic priests, the people start offering more and more often and from fruits and animals, they started offering children and humans. They knew that after death, new life would occur and they wanted the deities to return. That is how the Aztec are remembered, but once they were high educated. They left us the sun stone, which is a 20, 000 years old warning for this recurring disasters. To learn much more about the cycle of disasters and civilizations, recurring floods, ancient high tech and alien deities, read the e-book: "what I know about Nibiru". You can read it nicely on every computer, tablet or smartphone. Just search for: know Nibiru

[darlenefraser]

Dang! Now would we like it if people who came along after us named Main Street in our town “Avenue of the Dead”? What if we just called it the “Lane of Massive Parties”? 😂 (joking!)
