SOURCES THAT FIT ALL (MOST) OF YOUR MAYAN INFORMATION NEEDS!!

If you want to skip the ramble, sources be at the end.   I seriously could not spend any more time gathering the HUNDREDS OF SOURCES.   I have crap to do here.   



Hey, look at this!  This right here!  Yes, this is what is called, in academia and writing circles, a "Bibliography".   It is a collection of sources and reference materials used to back up claims, work and research that is done when reports or essays or books are being written.   These "Bibliographies" are also the key to citations in a paper or report, and allows those reviewing your work to, in fact, check your information.   

People lie, and people spread misinformation:  This is to prevent that.   Imagine, if someone who wasn't an expert said some outlandish thing, like "Bleach cures covid"  and didn't back that up with fact?  I mean, what would happen?  Its not like someone reading such a statement would imbibe a dangerous chemical because someone with no medical, pharmaceutical  or chemical training said so, right?

Wait....

Yeah...  Imagine if these folks actually did some research.


ANYWAY, where was I?  Oh yes, citing sources and not sounding like a charlatan.   Its like, if you read information and then cite that information, correctly, someone who is sent a video of you saying foolish things wouldn't be able to call out your shenanigans.   

When had that ever happened though?  

Right.

Anyway.   

11 minutes.  

That is how long this took.  11 minutes.  It took me longer to make myself look decent on camera with my reply to this newest of...contenders. (Lies, I typed this up first.  But who's counting.)

And this isn't even going to be a properly formatted Bibliography:  I literally went "CUT/PASTE"   for the sake of time.  

Here you go.  Sources about the Mayans:  Culture, History, archaeology, the whole kit. Seriously, I could spend months reading.
