The article is good but it’s so funny to read articles like this as someone with a decent understanding of Mayan society. Some of the conclusions in this article and statements from researchers are so incredibly basic 😭. I get that it has to be because the target audience is mostly people who do not have my insight and a short quote from a researcher can only contain so much information but it can get really funny when every other paragraph exclaims something that to you is already quite obvious as if it were a grand discovery.
This felt like a humblebrag to write and I hate that, maybe it’s the edible making me paranoid but I feel the need to append this clarifying that I am not doing that. I’m sure y’all know what I mean?
