Hello all.
This blog post is going to be about what I've been doing lately.
For the last few days I've been watching some archaeology shows.
Most of which is the show I keep telling you about, "DIGGING FOR THE TRUTH".
Last night on "DIGGING FOR THE TRUTH"was how there were Mayan temples before they were first thought to be built.
The Maya that built these temples wasted a lot of things, like cutting down all of the trees so they could burn them for lime, to make plaster for their temples.
With so many trees gone soil erosion happened and the clay was washed in all over their fertile soil, which means they probably couldn't grow any crops, and this is what they think ended this early Mayan civilisation.
See ya when I make another blog post.

Did you know Mayans had 1.5 million in 1560? It's a mystery how they dissapeared.

Yep.
Yeah, I think it was from there being to many of them around.
