(Tlaloc, The Rain God)
Introduction
Before we get going into another esoteric post about ancient civilizations and crypto tech let’s pause for a second to shill all my past articles on stuff like this.
In the end I did finish the first version of the Roman Laws (Imperium), and you can find this at tidusdao.substack.com. I use this particular substack (TPS Report) for all of my venting, crazed ideas. Also there are almost 100 of you degenerates so I felt it only appropriate that I drop some more geriatric ideas onto your young impressionable minds. If you’re older than me, well - keep hanging on there sir.
I’ve been really into listening to Roy Casagranda videos. Just trying to absorb as much history as I can while I drive around cities and I try not to drift too much into thought while driving, but there is just so much going on in the world, and similar to Quantum Mechanics I feel like future and past are the same thing in many respects so let’s look backwards while we’re blasting at light speeds towards all the stuff people thought was impossible only fifty short years ago.
Mainly I will be focusing on the Aztecs as I feel somewhat familiar enough to draw some crypto parallels. Their belief in life being so sacred as to not kill enemies during war battles is probably as good a start as any. Then we’ll hop into their four (4) creator Gods, their priests, governance (of course!), city building, and the fact that there is a great metaphor in the struggle between the Spanish and the Aztecs and how this is probably a bit similar as to what is currently happening in crypto worldwide.
WTF!?! the Aztecs didn’t kill anyone during wars with other peoples?
(some made-up shit chatGPT hallucinated)1
Well, to be accurate they did have weapons and there were these engagements called ‘Flower Wars” and you would gain a lot more status, and prestige by capturing enemy combatants. This somewhat stopped after the Spanish started butchering whole towns. At that point the Aztecs realized that even their sacred respect of life ended when it came to dealing with the Spanish whom they considered pure evil. You have to contrast this with the human sacrifice the Aztecs were practicing at the time, but in context the Europeans still come out looking like a trash capitalist empire, but such is life in the 15th, and 16th centuries.
Young Aztec warriors would go into battle in pairs with a guy behind you holding some rope. Generally they’re facing off against a guy with a spear, or sword, and you’re also dodging their projectile weapons. Your goal is to dodge the spear and sword (no shit), and get in close as the Aztecs were expert wrestlers and they would attempt to disarm you. If you captured one prisoner alive you gained societal status, and your expected war contribution was over for that battle, but if you captured 3-4 prisoners during your lifetime you could become a ‘knight’ (Jaguar/Eagle rank). The guy behind with the rope would tie up your prisoner and bring them to the back of the line with the other captives. Then you would sort of tag out like in professional wrestling and your partner would go in assuming you were tired after, you know, disarming and capturing alive an armed enemy solider!
It is one of the most beautiful sights in the world to see them in their battle array because they keep formation wonderfully and are very handsome. Among them are extraordinarily brave men who face death with absolute determination. I saw one of them defend himself courageously against two swift horses, and another against three and four, and when the Spanish horseman could not kill him one of the horsemen in desperation hurled his lance, which the Aztec caught in the air, and fought with him for more than an hour until two-foot soldiers approached and wounded him with two or three arrows. He turned on one of the soldiers but the other grasped him from behind and stabbed him. During combat, they sing and dance and sometimes give the wildest shouts and whistles imaginable, especially when they know they have the advantage. Anyone facing them for the first can be terrified by their screams and their ferocity. - Spanish eyewitness account (wikipedia)
What’s an allusion to this sort of honor, and crypto culture?
Since the Aztecs were a relatively young empire and full of all sorts of cultural traditions they basically were handicapping themselves by relying too much on the assumption that things would always be some version of what they had been before.
Crypto Comparison: For example in DeFi, founders tend to replicate TradFi systems with the newer, more novel blockchain systems, but what if things change dramatically?
i.e. the world ends up embracing bitcoin and we get a whole new paradigm of currencies trading against bitcoin and the elimination of currency boards and traditional means of exchange and transfer.
This would represent a complete fundamental overhaul of how world finance works, and as much as the average bitcoin maxi would pray for this sort of outcome, the tail effects of this would most likely be horrific for many economies all over the world. Basically the old problem of getting from ‘a’ to ‘b’ where ‘b’ is a new system of finance, or governance.
This would also be similar to those that might be shocked by the Tornado Cash situation where the US gov’t put a protocol on the OFAC list. Whereas someone like a privacy coin supporter would argue that of course they are going to play dirty, why are you trying to win a moral victory?
The typical bitcoin maxi is more mentally prepared for the upcoming chaos of a new zeitgeist, but less useful for supporting a transition to new governance, as they’re naively promoting anarchy. In contrast the typical ethereum maxi is less prepared for the black swan event because they’re stuck in a situation similar to the Aztec historical mistake of assuming the enemies of tomorrow will be similar to those of today.
Where is the middle ground between preparing for known unknowns, and unknown unknowns? A common coding dilemma.
Art Matters
I am representing the Aztec Empire (BTC) with the Mayan Empire (ETH) below.
This is both of their calendars and you can clearly see that they are not similar at all and are based on completely non-inter operable tech stacks.
I didn’t even believe the above images were real, and thought that both images were some kind of stylized interpretation. I was completely wrong, these calendars are accurate. Mind blown to be honest. Here is the original artifact (Aztec calendar) without painting.
(wikipedia)
Ok, that was a lot of work just to get a cheap ‘bitcoin’ vs ‘ethereum’ joke into the post!
If you survived my Bronze Age article you’ve been sufficiently damaged by my ‘intellect’. I just wanted to show off how amazing these calendars are. It’s very difficult not to veer off into tangents when dealing with this sort of historical material.
My roadmap for this post had been:
Then we’ll hop into their four(4) creator gods, their priests, governance (of course!), city building, and the fact that there is a great metaphor in the struggle between the Spanish and the Aztecs and how this is probably a bit similar as to what is currently happening in crypto worldwide. (me, earlier in this post)
Four Tezcatlipocas (Founder Gods)
Ok, so the founder Gods in Aztec culture are known as the four Tezcatlipocas. The first one is also called Tezcatlipoca (don’t ask). The Aztecs had a very interesting relationship with their Gods.
Education was directly religious, Gods were the education. Religion was done more in the Aesop’s Fables sense of the fable in general.
Fable is a literary genre defined as a succinct fictional story, in prose or verse, that features animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that are anthropomorphized, and that illustrates or leads to a particular moral lesson (a "moral"), which may at the end be added explicitly as a concise maxim or saying.
You couldn’t trust your own reflection since even the truth of yourself was a mystery.
In the Aztec culture you must have been constantly battling for your mind and status and the risks were endless. The world might end at any moment due to your priests failing in their constant voluntary, and involuntary bloodletting (yes, they were bleeding themselves on purpose to keep the sun in the sky).
Needless to say the Aztecs were probably awesome dudes to drink with, but you might want to leave before the stew in a few weeks. (Spoiler: It’s you!) I heard they had some pretty nice magic mushrooms, and also the copper currency was in the 3D shape of a mushroom. $AZTECSHROOMSONICANDRE.
Anyways we’re trying to keep this under 20 minutes of reading so I shall continue - Let’s look at these Gods and a bit about the main city.
Tezcatlipoca
(North)
(God of Smoking Mirrors, Hurricanes, Conflict, Obsidian)
(Black Tezcatlipoca)
(image Wikipedia)
The Aztecs and Mayans particularly interest me as they seem to have a connection to before the last ice age through their ancestors, mythology, and religion. Many things have been passed down and their creator myths draw extinction-event parallels as they tried again and again to create the sun. Minoan pre-Herakles and Greco-Egyptian being a bit of a dead end because we really only have a few hundred, or maybe thousand stone(cuneiform) tablets, many are inventory and/or trade receipts so not as deep as you might hope for when trying to search for knowledge of civilizations before the last ice age. That and some vague descriptions from Gilgamesh.
This god Tezcatlipoca represents an insight into how the Aztecs viewed the world. They believed that even if you looked in a reflection, or a mirror you were not seeing a pure you. That there was always deception and manipulation in what you would see with your eyes. This god represented this in the same way that Aphrodite might represent sex.
Tezcatlipoca himself was said to be the Jaguar God. Yeah, you know that one, the Jaguar symbolism, that’s this guy. That’s why he’s just the Tezcatlipoca.
Yes, you are looking at some sort of riddle into our deep human psyche. I can’t say I don’t get chills sometimes looking at this imagery. It’s so old, foreign, and visceral.
In fact there are 360 different forms of this God recorded by the Spanish back in the days of the conquest.
These include:
Tloque Nahuaque, meaning "lord of the near and nigh"; "the one who owns what surrounds [us]"
Titlacahuan, Titlacahua or Titlacaua, meaning " [of whom] we are [his] slaves"; "[he] whose [slaves] we are"
Tehimatini, meaning "the wise"; "the one who understands people"
Tlazopilli, meaning "the precious nobleman"; "the precious son"
Teyocoyani, meaning "the creator [of people]"
Yáotl or Yaotzin, meaning "the enemy"; "the venerable enemy"
Icnoacatzintli, meaning "the merciful"
Ipalnemoani, meaning "[he] by whom [we] all live"
Ilhuicahua, meaning "possessor of heaven"
Tlalticpaque, meaning "possessor of the earth"
Monenequi, meaning "the arbitrary"; "the one who pretends"
Pilhoacatzintli, meaning "revered father"; "possessor of children"
Tlacatlé Totecué, meaning "our master, our lord"
Yoalli Ehécatl, Yohualli Ehécatl or Youalli Ehécatl, meaning "night wind"(metaphor for "invisible" or "impalpable")
Monantzin, meaning "your mother"
Motatzin, meaning "your father"
Telpochtli, meaning "[the] young man"
Moyocoyani or Moyocoani, meaning "the one who creates himself." His calendrical name is Ome Ácatl, "Two Reed", and under that name he consecrates himself as another deity.
I think you get the point. This dude is magnificent and I can’t really get my head fully around how amazing it is that there is so much uncertainty and ambiguity with this God that we really don’t know if he’s the same guy from way back then. We’re talking old Gods now, really old Gods.
Xipe-Totec
(God of Fertility & Agriculture, Our Lord the Flayed One)
(East)
(Red Tezcatlipoca)
(image Wikipedia)
I don’t know about you, but I for one, love my gods to be of the ritual flaying, agriculture, and fertility fashion. I mean there is a story about how the priests wore the skin of a king’s daughter to start a war to get the Aztecs to move to a new homeland, but I like to think of him as the inspiration for crypto layer 2s.
Not really getting the attention, or liquidity you deserve? Just wear a layer 1 skin! Instant respect and adulation. (Note: This is not a dig at Stacks).
Besides if you’re reading this article you clearly have a deranged sense of humour - let’s continue.
Another name he went by was ‘The Night Drinker’. I have to say that reading about Aztecs has replenished my username collection for multiplayer games. Who among us doesn’t want to play with a ‘Night Drinker’. For some reason there is a lot of references to mirrors in Aztec mythology. Xipe-Totec was also referred to as the ‘Red Smoking Mirror’, and it all goes part and parcel with the fact that the Aztecs unlike most modern-day religions were very cognizant of the trickster, ephemeral nature of a god’s desires and needs.
This seems like a good time to draw a crypto comparison where all requests for wallet access, approvals, or data transfers of any kind are, or should be met with extreme caution and contemplation.
Crypto Comparison: Crypto is full of smoking mirrors of all colours, and I think we sometimes forget that cyber warfare is going on every day, and not just between nation-states and global corporations, but even just leftover malignant viruses, script-kiddies, and yolo swatting.
Part of the reason that Xipe-Totec worship consisted of the removal of entire human skins (in one piece) was that it symbolized the vegetation the earth puts on before the rains came. A fascinating and disturbing god to say the least.
Quetzalcōātl
Feathered Serpent, patron god of the priests
West
White Tezcatlipoca
(image Wikipedia)
Quetzalcoatl was the God of life, light, and wisdom, lord of the day and the wind.
Serpents of precious feathers according to some sources were in an allegorical sense ‘the wisest of men’. This might help explain so much of the serpent iconography through the Southern Americas. Contrary to the Mayans the Aztec didn’t usually have serpents with feathers and apparently there was a cult around 600AD spreading to new religious centres and the man’s name who led this cult translated to ‘Feathered Serpent’.
Ah, those wise snakes. Also known as the manifestation of wind, they worse spiral jewellery like conch shells cut along the cross-section. Symbols such as this ‘spirally voluted wind jewel’ were suspected to be important in Aztec mythology. Representing patterns witnessed in hurricanes, seashells, and whirlpools. When looking back to these Mesoamerican mythos for inspiration we are constantly reminded how old they are, and also how much we don’t even have passed down by even oral tradition. Hence the reason that the protection of ancient languages and oral traditions is so important. You never know when you can gleam knowledge from the past.
Crypto comparison: We can pull all of this symbolism into what necessitates a quality meme, or meme token in today’s fast-paced crypto worldwide ecosystem. Memes that look of quality can fall flat, whereas raw, and communicative symbolism can have the fire of a thousand Trumps when calling the cult of money worship to one’s liquidity hearth.
Huītzilōpōchtli
God of War, The Sun, Human Sacrifice and Bloodletting
South
Blue Tezcatlipoca
He wields the fire serpent and is generally just a super badass. Together himself and Quetzalcōātl created fire, the first males and females, along with the Sun and the Earth. The hummingbird generally was a sign of rebirth, or regeneration.
There continues to be disagreement about the full significance of Huītzilōpōchtli's name. Generally it is agreed that there are two elements, huītzilin "hummingbird" and ōpōchtli "left hand side."
It is very interesting that the Aztec culture also grew and changed with the times. Drawing on earlier religions and culture the pantheon of the Gods changed as times changed with some Gods being relegated to lesser deities and others being outright destroyed. I find through the allegory of the Gods we are able to divine deeper insight into the greater human condition. War was considered a part of life, as shown by the greater importance of Huītzilōpōchtli later in the Aztec Empire. He replaced another God because they had been shot into the sky to become the sun. The increased importance of a war god shows that the times were indeed changing and the cultures of the people in the region had to adapt or be defeated.
Crypto Comparison: Hacks and smart contract attacks are a way of life. It’s less the if, and more the when and how. Most vulnerabilities are of the human nature, the social attack. We all can only hope that the younger generations can be more savvy with their data, transfers, and access in general.
Tenochtitlan
Just before Spanish conquest Tenochtitlan, and Tlatelolco two cities in the vein of Buda & Pest (Budapest) i.e. two cities eventually becoming one amalgamated city, or city state. The largest city in the entire world at the time of Spanish conquest according to estimates and eye-witness accounts. Even larger a localized population than even anything in the entire Spanish empire, or elsewhere in the old world. Five times larger than London, England. An amazing achievement in agriculture and culture in general - regardless of your thoughts on human sacrifice.
(map)
Part of why I started writing this article is that the Aztecs as well as the Mayans were such old cultures; the people we all descend from. It is believed accordingly to Casagranda et al., that after crossing the Bering land bridge the hunter-gatherer lifestyle evolved by necessity into agriculture as all land was eventually inhabited as the human population slowly grew. This also paired with the hypothesis that the Americas were about 3000 years behind the old world due just to natural migration of the human species to space (it took longer to fill up the Americas as they were settled last). Estimates being presently that the Americas were populated around 22,000 years ago.
It was much more efficient to be a hunter-gatherer and you weren’t tied to the land until the land was inevitably filled up. This forced a new social paradigm according to the associated theories where agriculture became a necessity to feed larger population centres; for example the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan seen above in the first known European map. The Aztecs built causeways and pipes that took fresh water from nearby mountain streams as the lake was salty. Later on they split the lake in half as the southern half was less salty and eventually they created two lakes, one salt, one freshwater and just like that bio-hacking was born.
The Aztecs and Mayans are some of the most ancient ancestors that we all share. I believe the five suns are giving us some of the only known information regarding pre-22000 years ago. Basically all of the extinction events that human(s) survived.
The first people were giants that were eventually eaten by what they called the ‘jaguars’. The second sun was people who were of similar size of today, but they became greedy and so the gods turned them into monkeys. The third sun was based around the Earth being on fire (probably the asteroid strike), the fourth sun was the flood (see Gilgamesh & Noah), now at the fifth sun the Aztecs were always trying to prevent the next cataclysmic event and thus believed that blood sacrifices allowed Huītzilōpōchtli to have the strength to keep the sun in the sky.
You basically go backwards in time from present day, past Jesus, past the Romans, past the Babylonians, past the Minoans, and the most ancient Egyptians, past all ancient Persian, or Arab nations, back to when you just moved instead of fighting because the world was so small, and maybe there are answers in the oral histories of the Aztecs and the Mayans.
The Late Glacial Interstadial (LGI) c. 14,670 to c. 12,890 BP
Ice sheets covered much of North America, Northern Europe, and Asia and profoundly affected Earth's climate by causing a major expansion of deserts, along with a large drop in sea levels. (Last Glacial Maximum)
Above how we ended up in the Americas..Also why the Americas were about 3,000 years behind in technology back then compared to Eurasia and co.
I went from a calendar - to a creator god - to an ice age - what the hell is Bob doing here?
Pre-pre-culture is the great unifier because it answers questions for all of us about why we are here.
These money and governance questions have been wrestled with for millennia. We don’t go on a straight line of progress, we lose things over a great amount of time, and then we hopefully can relearn, or find the knowledge we had known before. Don’t even imagine what’s probably in the Vatican’s basement. It’s always been about money and power and we need to see what humans were capable of.
Aztec Coding Practices
You might ask yourself a question?
How is Bob going to marry this with crypto? He always writes about how he’s going to do crypto comparisons with The Bronze Age, French Revolution, US revolution, and the Romans.
What does this ancient history have to do with crypto?
Apparently a hell of a lot.
The Aztec had two calendars, the same calendars that are on the images you saw earlier in this article with the bright colours.
The calendar consists of a 360-day calendar cycle called xiuhpōhualli (year count), and a 260-day ritual cycle called tōnalpōhualli (day count). These two cycles together form a 52-year "century", sometimes called the "calendar round". The xiuhpōhualli is considered to be the agricultural calendar, since it is based on the sun, and the tōnalpōhualli is considered to be the sacred calendar. (wikipedia)
Now unfortunately the Aztecs were only an empire for approximately ninety-two years, estimates do vary a little bit, but the point is that every 52 years when the calendars aligned there was a party, and this party was so intense that the inhabitants literally tore the entire city down and threw it in the lake.
Let me repeat that. Every 52 years the Aztecs had a mega party where they tore down the entire city and threw it into Lake Texcoco! They would then rebuild the city even better and larger than before. This event only happened twice during the Aztec empire, but who among us coding has not wished to trash their blockchain dApp and start afresh.
The Aztec priests were notorious for guiding the population into actions they deemed most righteous, or would satisfy the gods, mostly that the sun would stay in the sky. What a sight it must have been to see your city torn to the ground and rebuilt after the best party of your life.
Aztec Priests aka Blockchain Maxis
Honestly I have nothing against the bitcoin, ethereum, and <insert chain> maxis. They all fight for what they believe (that their blockchain is superior and none else shall apply) Think of it as blockchain nationalism, not to be confused with patriotism. If we were discussing countries you would say:
‘I love bitcoin, it’s fantastic!’ (blockchain patriot)
as opposed to:
‘I only love bitcoin, everything else is a shitcoin!’ (blockchain nationalist)
Back in the Aztec’s early days (pre-empire) they were defeated in a war and had to abandon their lands. They travelled for months, if not years and eventually came to a kingdom where they begged to be allowed to settle. The king gave them land, but it was a poor piece of land, and they struggled mightily. The priests were trying to convince the people to leave, but they refused, fearing retribution and future hardship. Eventually the priests came up with a plan.
They gathered many boats and set them on the shoreline with some priests watching. The head priests went to the king and begged him to allow them to honour him for being so great, they specifically asked to perform a religious ceremony with his daughter to demonstrate their thanks. After receiving the daughter from the proud king they cut off her entire skin in one piece and left her writhing in pain unbeknownst to the king. One of the priests put on the daughter’s skin and jumped out and presented themselves to the king in honour of Xipe-Totec (Our Lord the Flayed One). The king ordered all the Aztecs be killed, and the army started killing the Aztecs. All of the people ran away towards the water and here were those priests waiting for them guiding them onto the waiting boats.
The priests guided the fleeing Aztec peoples to an island in the middle of a salt water lake, and there upon the island they witnessed an Eagle standing on a cactus with a rattlesnake in its mouth. This prophecy had been taught to the Aztec people for years prior. That this would be their homeland. This is also what you see in the middle of the Mexican flag today.
Crypto Comparison: Don’t trust priests, or influencers. Also it’s good to have boats nearby. Finally don’t give up your daughter to priests no matter how proud you are.
Agriculture & Governance
Let’s do some more comparisons. Starting with the food supply for fun since we’re in ancient times. You had the grass evolve/engineered into corn, the beans grew up the grass stalks, the squash sat on the ground safely, and gourds were for storage.
Beans:
Vines that crawl up the corn. (Data Availability, Smart Contracts)
Squash:
Stays on the ground. Storage. (Arweave, Filecoin, Shadow, IPFS)
Gourds:
Seed containers you bury in the ground. (Multi-sigs, lending & borrowing)
Corn:
Calories, you had to cook it, or break through the kernel. Get to those juicy satoshis. (Bitcoin)
Ok, that was a bit silly, but it was fun to try and make a comparison there. Governance was organized through Altepetl (meaning ‘water mountain’) and Calpolli were the territorial unit where families intermarried and were broken into basic production units as there was no private property. You would have the jade carvers, the corn growers, the obsidian carvers and so on. It was very specialized so think of a quad of house structures with a central courtyard and a whole lot of wrestling going on, as every Calpolli was expected to provide ‘x’ amount of soldiers for war.
Also, just as an important note Aztec family dynamics were bilateral, so inheritance passed to both sons & daughters. Aztec society was highly gendered, but women’s work was considered equal to warfare and was part of the equilibrium of pleasing the Gods. Nobles were polygamous, but commoners were not generally allowed to do this, only the nobles. Peasants could be enslaved if they owed debts, or were in extreme poverty, but this was not hereditary. Commoners could obtain noble status by demonstrating prowess in warfare. When warriors took captives it increased their prestige and so on.
Markets & Currency
I have to apologize for these articles being so long sometimes. I could just chop them up into a whole bunch of chunks and try and build a following, but what would be the fun in that??? My delusions are free for all, and aren’t we all having fun? Human sacrifice, crypto, and ice age talk, I guess all that’s left is markets.
Oh yeah they had a market. After the Aztecs ended up on the island with the eagle eating the rattlesnake sitting on the cactus they slowly realized that the island kind of, well, to put it nicely sucked. They had to figure out a way to survive so they pulled a Switzerland out of their hat and declared neutrality. All could trade on at Tenochtitlan, but no fighting allowed. There were police that would walk around with basically flattened baseball bats with obsidian sticking out of them, and a set of official weights. If a merchant, or trader felt someone was messing with their weights they could call over the police. If the weights had been tampered with they murdered the merchant on the spot, but the kicker was that if the merchant was falsely accused they murdered the accuser.
Have to hand it to the Aztecs for really understanding how to regulate a free market system.
There were four main currencies the Aztec markets traded with. Corn, cocoa beans, copper(mushrooms), and cotton. Even the Aztecs knew that wool sucked. I didn’t get into it, but the Aztecs loved their chocolate. Anyways that leads us to our final -
Crypto Comparison: Even in the ancient times we had multiple currencies and everything worked out just fine. You could argue that the same happens today with gold, oil, $USD, and steel. I’m sure we could make arguments for many more.
Conclusion: What have we learned?
Basically if you don’t get too deep into the five suns mythology you can draw pretty interesting data from the Aztec civilization. Clearly the five suns mythology was drawn even before Aztlán (pre-Aztec homeland). It probably predates even the Olmecs, and this is what is most fascinating for me about this culture, the Gods, and the overarching mythos. Through a fair bit of broken telephone we actually have a pretty good oral tradition dating back to before the Bering land bridge. I know that I’m hitting the peace pipe a bit hard here to draw such a straight line back, but after reading so much about the ancient Greeks, Persians, Romans, Minoan, Mycenaean, Egyptians and so on there was basically a moment where the oral history, or written history just sort of stops around 1400-1500 BC.
The Aztec mythos, or mind you all of the Mesoamerican mythology goes back through FOUR major catastrophic events: giants, greed/monkeys, burning, flood.
We know that the last major flood happened around 10,000 years ago. We know that the meteor happened about 66 million years ago, and then before that who knows, but you’d have to think that if any culture survived that sort of event you’d probably talk about it the same way everyone knows the Noah’s Ark story even though it’s a gigantic ripoff of the Gilgamesh epic and other histories. It’s extremely rare to get any sort of fossils out of anything, and we really are lucky to have even what we have from the early history of Earth. Ideas that were once laughable like Mars ejecting matter into space and eventually Earth, are becoming more plausible each day. Perhaps we have more clues than we think. I’m especially interested in the first sun (time of the giants), and the second sun (people got greedy and turned into monkeys). The Olmecs were the people that constructed huge jaguar heads!?! It’s amazing how much we might be able to find out now that we can shoot LIDAR into the ground, or use satellites to find ancient ruins. Imagine what might be on the bottom of the oceans?
The Aztec market systems, currencies, police, gods, and overall culture were inspiring to say the least, but maybe minus so much human sacrifice, but hey that sun isn’t going to stay in the sky all by itself!
All I can say is thank you for going on this abridged version of history with a crypto twist. May all scammers turn into monkeys and be eaten by jaguars.
Love,
-Bob
No, it’s real bro. That’s how you grab ranks by catching captives bro. Gotta camp that base bro.
