  3. Chichén Itzá

    Worker-Placement, Engine-Builder und eine ordentliche Ladung Würfelglück. Klingt nicht gerade nach einer für Stefan Feld üblichen Kombination – und das ist gewollt. Bei Chichén Itzá sollte das Experiment gewagt werden, klassische Euro-Elemente mit Glücks-Eleme

  4. After #ChichenItzá the queue in the cafeteria reduced and I had the opportunity to take a picture of second class. It was full.
    I forgot to take a picture of the menu, but they basically have snacks, sandwiches, coffee, tea and cold drinks.

  6. #ChichénItzá is located next to #Mexico's major tourist attraction, the #Mayan ruins of the site. From the station it's not far to get to the site's entry, but the footpath doesn't seem ready, so a bus shuttle is needed. Most people who got off had been on the train when we boarded, so I guess they were mostly day tourists from #Cancún, for whom this is indeed a much more comfortable experience than a bus. For us staying in Valladolid, taxi/collectivo was easier than taking the train. #TrenMaya

  8. There has been debate about load factor on #TrenMaya. Here are some purely observational one-off non reliable statistics:
    - about 30 people boarded the 10:04 train in #Valladolid
    - majority is #Mexican (observing documents at passport checks)
    - our premier class coach had 95% seats taken), the next coach 75-80%.
    - a lot of people got off at #ChichenItza, load dropped to 70% (I counted) on our car.
    - Had a quick glimpse into second class AFTER ChichenItza: completely full from what I could see

  10. Departure was right on time in #Valladolid and the next stop will be #ChichenItza, so we are informed by the automatic announcement. Our seats were taken by an American family that didn't seem to be too familiar with assigned seating/train travel. #TrenMaya

  16. Série sobre descobertas arqueológicas dos ancestrais maias na América Central estreia no History

    A civilização maia tem intrigado historiadores há séculos com seu conhecimento sem precedentes em matemática, astronomia e engenharia. Tudo o que restou dos maias pareciam ser as ruínas de pirâmides gigantes, mas as descobertas mais recentes de escavações revelam muito mais. A série Mistérios da Civilização Maia, que o canal History estreia na terça-feira, 1º de julho, a partir das 19h15, se aprofunda nos novos achados arqueológicos.

    Os ancestrais do povo maia prosperaram em centenas de cidades por toda a América Central. Revelações sobre as cidadelas perdidas de Tikal, na selva guatemalteca; um cenote sagrado, ou sumidouro rochoso, em Chichén Itzá, no norte da Península de Yucatán; e uma rede subterrânea de túneis descoberta em Teotihuacan, a nordeste da Cidade do México, são apresentadas na série, por meio de tecnologia de ponta e reconstruções CGI para ilustrar as descobertas.

    O episódio de estreia é Teotihuacán. A cidade atingiu seu auge entre 100 a.C. e 650 d.C., exercendo grande influência sobre outras regiões, incluindo áreas maias. É famosa por suas grandes pirâmides, como a do Sol e da Lua, e pela Avenida dos Mortos, e foi declarada Patrimônio Mundial pela Unesco em 1987. Mas, a misteriosa metrópole pré-colombiana continua a confundir os especialistas do mundo inteiro. Quem foram os construtores da segunda pirâmide mais alta do mundo? Qual o papel que os maias desempenharam na sua construção e quais são os segredos que a última descoberta arqueológica revela?

  24. I'm in Mexico for vacation and visited Chichen Itza yesterday.

    We did a tour, and on the bus our guide went through a lecture on Mayan history, culture, and so on -- including their mathematics.

    I did not expect her to get into the details of how a base-20 positional number system worked! To a busload of random tourists, she explained how one writes 2043 as 5*400 + 2*20 + 3.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_num

    And the site, of course, is amazing!
