CREEPY things that were 'Normal' in the Maya Civilization

The Mayan civilization has many mysteries surrounding it. We know that movies make the ancient Mayan civilization seem more mystical than it really was (we're looking at you, 2012!). However, there are still many odd, creepy, and outright baffling facts about the civilization you may not know. Today on Nutty History, we're here to uncover the lost secrets of the Mayan Empire.

One weird fact about the Maya is that they are still in many parts of Belize, Mexico and Guatemala! So the civilization morphed, it did not disappear.

One thing you forgot to include is the answer to where the Mayans went. While their civilization collapsed, the Mayan people are still around in Mexico and Belize as well as other Central American states. They did not disappear as a people. They just carried on farming and trying to survive persecution. Today some of them are relearning the ancient script of their ancestors and trying to rediscover their history.

I loved being educated in a fun and entertaining way. It makes you remember more information

First - cool channel - love the variety in narrators and the wide range of content 👍🏽 keep it up

[BelleGracee]

We didn’t disappear. We’re still here and proud to be Mayan.

I love that the narrator mentioned Lil Wayne, lil Baby and young thug as a reference. 🤣🤣🤣 my new favorite history channel. They rock with the culture!! ✊🏾🤣🤣

My boyfriend is from Yucatan, he's Mayan and his family even speak the dialect but he hated his big nose 👃🏼 if he were to live back then he'd be so happy 😊 😂

I love the way we think we're so advanced 🙂

Man, this is something else. Alcohol enemas sounds like something you would hear about from an episode of 1000 ways to die. Elongated skulls I heard about from Seriously Strange.

I flipping adore these videos ❤️
I get lost in them for hours

[matthewmann]

The stairs, stairwells, stair cases, steps, stoops, and ramps could also add that background yeah

One of my cats is cross eyed (not uncommon for blue eyes) and it’s adorable but she does have some issues because of it. Her depth perception is horrendous for far things but she can function perfectly fine as an indoor cat. I wouldn’t let her outside not on a leash because she is kinda blind and could get hurt. Again, it’s super cute but I’d never do it intentionally because it could impact her quality of life

Sharping your teeth to points sends a message that transcends time.
Imagine a modern Mayan Empire.

[jamessuper]

You should have the stingray spine bloodletting ritual added to the list.

[chrisfalx]

Ok now the jewels inlaid in the teeth actually would look so dope

I'd want to thank you for the wonderful knowledge you present to your viewers. This information is intriguing. I appreciate all you've done. Thank you!

Thank you for this video. You’re great and I mean that.

I love my 🇬🇹 We may have done creepy stuff but people still trying to learn about us Mayans and the Aztecs. 💙💙💙

Id like to point out that most gladiator games didn't end up with someone dead. Neither did people in most sports throughout history. If you don't count warfare as sport.
Well even warfare among greek states were fairly tame. They typically just faced up in a phalanx and went at it till one side gave up.
