First of all, Mel Gibson choked me to death: This is not a historical documentary.
Let me talk about my little feelings first. Human beings are really fragile and tenacious creatures. In our modern world life, it seems that everyone is an independent individual, but people are so small, but in primitive society, human beings are just one of the primates of all things, but It is so great in the struggle with nature. Seeing the little girl who took on the remaining children really tears. I followed the protagonist and witnessed the mysterious Mayan civilization in a few days. I thought it was a primitive jungle where the weak and the strong. I ran wildly in the forest for a day and night with him. After the storm, I saw the European fleet, like time and space. The barrier was shattered, it was too shocking. I have been as a new-born Maya prying into this mysterious world, exploring this mysterious and isolated world, until the Maya and I saw the arrival of Europeans together, my shock is not only derived from God’s perspective and insight into everything The shock later came from the Maya that I had been in the tropical rainforest for several days. This feeling like "a guest from outside", this kind of strange and unknown fear, this first time I saw a completely different world. In modern society, I can only feel it again when aliens come. By that time, I guess I will feel novel and exciting, even if it will be destroyed by invasion.
Let’s take a look at popular science. I’m not a professional, but it’s more reliable than most people who have only seen the unsolved mysteries of the world and the accusations of cerebral palsy. The biggest controversy is: "Ah, you are Aztec, why do you call it Maya." First of all, if you check the information for these cerebral palsy, you will know that the Mayan civilization lasted until the 16th century and coexisted with the Aztec civilization. For a long time, the Maya civilization was also conquered and slaughtered by the Spaniards. There is nothing that the Maya perished before the Spanish arrived. The death in their brains refers to a major decline in the 9th century. However, the Maya did not perish. There are still millions of Maya people in Central America. The language in this movie is the Yucatan Maya that has been passed down from ancient times. Otherwise, where did you think this language came from, is it made now? If those with cerebral palsy have seen the map of Aztec, they would not say the nonsense of "referring to the Ma for Ah". Most of the Aztec cities are built on water, almost artificial islands, while the movie is a typical Mayan land. pyramid. It is also said that the Maya rejected human sacrifices, and the living sacrifices were made by Aztecs. They both said that the two co-existed for a long time. Although it is not clear whether they are the successors of the past or the rising stars who have developed their own independent culture, it is not clear, but it is clear. They must influence each other. Anyway, in the existing literature, it is clearly stated that the Maya also carried out living sacrifices, but there is no evidence that the Maya would arrest people from nearby small tribes as sacrifices and serve as sacrifices. Often prisoners of war from other city-states. Secondly, they made living sacrifices and even large-scale living sacrifices. These are the manuscripts dictated and written by the Westerners themselves. The authentic Mathematics were all burned by civilized Westerners. The truth four hundred years ago except those in Spain Others do not know, whether the documents of these missionaries contain prejudice and exaggeration against foreign races or even darken it. It is even more nonsense to testify that this is Aztec’s clothing, utensils, etc. Obsidian utensils, turquoise jewelry, and feather decorations are all co-existing in the two civilizations. There is also said that Maya is an empire, I just want to say: idiot, idiot. The Mayan civilization is a cultural circle composed of various city-states, similar to the relationship between the various city-states in ancient Greece. They belong to the same cultural system, but they have never formed a unified empire. It can only be said that illiterate people who read wrong books are really disgusting.
In other words, the American continent is really miserable. If Europe is not colonized, then the backwardness and uncivilization here are really no different from Africa. Of course, it must be more prosperous, civilized and developed than Africa, and Europe will definitely not be able to develop. I look forward to this historical process of technology and civilization. How will the skill points of the tree be? Anyway, the skill points of the Americas are getting more and more crooked. About 10,000 years ago, humans arrived from the Asian continent via the Bering Strait. So for these people, this is an undeveloped virgin land with abundant resources. In Eurasia, the prey that was prey to be preyed early and the poor planting conditions are not good, Africa and the Americas are simply better places for old-age care than Eurasia. Since no one has set foot in the Americas, the products are extremely rich, and when hunting can sustain life, there will be no civilization to choose farming and animal husbandry that are more effective and slow, and catching and eating is the most cost-effective. What’s surprising is that they have pyramids built with huge rocks, Aztecs with floating cities, and they have more developed irrigation systems and water supply and drainage systems than Europe. Of course, they also cultivated land later, and they have a special cultivation method. They are extremely fertile, they can even be grown four times a year. They have gold, copper and iron ore, but they have developed the ultimate stone civilization. I don’t know the necessary conditions for the development of the metallurgical industry. Is the topography and geography restricting them? ? Still the level of productivity has met the demand. Perhaps obsidian, a sharp stone, can meet all their needs, but it’s incredible that their culture has not progressed for more than three thousand years. It has not developed into a feudal society for more than three thousand years. It is still a primitive society, but there are bronzes. Didn't the bronze civilization develop, let alone the Iron Age, the material level was extremely rich, and there was no land merger under land private ownership? Wouldn't there be the horror of being hungry everywhere, as long as you enter the woods, you can eat? The Mayan civilization is a loose combination of civilizations similar to the Greek city-states. It is a cultural circle. But why didn't there be empires like Macedonia and Rome because they were all horseless infantry? The stubble frame only looks at the population. Wouldn't it be that a certain civilization invented a certain weapon and the tribes became more and more involved, leading to technological progress? It has been a dark forest for three or four thousand years, and I really don't understand it.
Film is not an art that simply relies on blood to stimulate adrenaline. It has something to say. Since he said that this is not a historical documentary, then according to literary tradition, this is a meaningful film that evokes the past and presents the present. Disrespect for history, and knead together several civilizations of the American continent according to my own imagination. That is not to reflect on Maya history, but to use Maya to tell a different story. At the beginning of the film, the collapse of a civilization is often not defeated by the outside, but destroyed from the inside. This shows Mel Gibson’s unpredictable intentions. The destruction of your civilization is caused by problems within yourself. Sooner or later, it will collapse. It is exhausted. If you don’t die today, you must die tomorrow. Although the Spaniards come here to kill you, we are just a fuel or accelerator. He is a typical victim guilt, and he will be beaten if he falls behind. I can't help asking, why, if I fall behind, I can't be beaten, but this is not the reason why I was beaten. The ancient nomads invaded farming civilization to survive, and farming civilization launched wars to strive for stability. But this only applies to East Asia that is isolated by deserts. Let’s talk about the collapse of a civilization. The Egyptian civilization was destroyed in Macedonia, the Two Rivers civilization was destroyed in Persia, the Persian civilization was destroyed in Macedonia, and the Indus civilization was destroyed in Aryan. Externally wiped out, let alone the West from the great nautical age to the steam age, it is still destroying civilization until now, and the United States, as the heir to the West in the past, and now the leader of the West, the United States and its minions, Australia, are committed to launching war in modern society. The eradication of civilization is now even more revealing the corpses of many aboriginal children in Canadian monasteries, which proves the cruelty and evil of Westerners. Then you can understand, I wiped you out because I wanted to plunder wealth here, but if I wanted to legalize my behavior, then you have your own problems. The whole movie seems to be around this internal collapse. The background of the film is when the Maya civilization is about to be destroyed in the 16th century. Before that, Maya had already declined 700 years ago. The Maya civilization exists in name only. The reason for the decline is unknown. He gave What is the reason the Mayans are looking for? You sacrifice, you kill, you are uncivilized, you are savage primitives, the film uses 99% of the space to tell how cruel and bloodthirsty the Mayans are. This caused the plague. The huge class difference between the nobility and the slaves may have triggered the popular riots. After the storm, Europeans came, but this was only 1% of the reason. The three people who were chasing the killing saw that the Spaniard holding the cross stopped the killing. At this time, the Spaniard appeared in the image of a savior, as if he had brought peace and stopped. Vendettas, they are obliged to bring the Lord’s gospel to this land, but they need to clean up the monkeys outside the Garden of Eden. The aborigines here are not even heathens. This is his purpose. You are barbarians, a civilization that is destined to be destroyed from within. We are not the main reason. We are here to spread civilization and help you out of ignorance. Although 99% of the time in the whole movie was shown that you were killing each other, only 1% of the people were killed in reality in the end, but I played 1% and killed 99% of you in reality, but I am doing this for your own good. Such a "barbaric" civilization of the Mayans lasted for three to four thousand years, from 2500 BC to the 16th century, but the small state of Minor, which has only a few hundred years of history, dare to deny its rationality? The whole film can be summed up in the words of the old man in the tribe. Human beings have a hole full of sorrow and desire. This hole is the driving force for human beings to move forward because of the desire for human beings to become stronger and smarter, but in the mouth of the old man, Humans are hard to fill with desires. Humans are worried about the status quo, but when they meet their existing desires, new desires are born and new sorrows are born. Isn’t that the case in the movie? The people with the least desires are the people in the village, who can hunt daily. Satisfy them, and the desire of the people in the city expands. They need slaves to satisfy their desires. Until the most demanding nation in the world comes, they have not been satisfied. They are always sad and born new aspirations. They develop capitalism. They need to expand overseas, need to plunder raw materials, and want to open up markets. They are willing to take risks for this, which is why they are so developed. And that girl’s prediction I tend to be an objective statement of the future through cursing, it does not mean that the white people think that the arrival of the Iberians is a destroyer. Or tacitly recognize the identity of the destroyer but don't think there is anything wrong with it. After all, the West did not cover up this period of history and can only play it down. What's ridiculous is that with the internal destruction viewpoint of the whole film argument, in the end, whether it is the little girl's prophecy or the real history, it is Western bandits who destroy this civilization. Living in the 16th century, and only a few hundred years of history, the small state of Minor would dare to deny its rationality?
