Uaxactun: the greatest Mayan observatory
Back to Guatemala for more jungle, archaeology, hat-wearing, and large insects. This video includes a demonic pig!

Wonderfully informative, as always! What an extraordinary place it must have been in its heyday.
Those insect bites are nothing. Try walking around the West of Scotland during black midge season.
It probably isn't, just a convenient arrangement of stones, but during the ball court segment, there appeared to be the top of a skull in the wall behind you! Maybe the demonic pigs previous owner?
Huzzah! I truly relish your on-site archaeological videos. You have a gift for narration and hosting and you are blessed to have so many adventures and travels under your belt. I envy that aspect of the European mindset which places value on world travel and treats it as a normal party of life. Here in the States, for the most part, such undertakings are considered lavish luxuries at best or elitist and contrary to blue collar American labor values at worst. Thank you for this marvelous video!
Was it just the masks that had colour or were the other carvings decorated in a similar manner to that of the classical statues?
Just about the right amount of demonitude?
That pig didn't look all too demonic
