That was awesome! I have long contended that there must be more to it down there...

Did the Mayans have building permits and zoning approvals for those buildings?

lIDAR has been a gift for archaeology and anthropologists ... proving that so many previous 'assumptions' by pompous 'experts' have been wrong.

Ancient civilizations may have been technologically less advanced than we are now, but they were far from 'primitive'.

Scientists are dicovering that ancient peoples were far more capable than academics gave them credit for.

There were several TV shows about the LIDAR finds. Nothing new or hidden from the public.

They did. The problem is that they can't get approvals to rebuild due to environmental and government regulations.  :tongue2:

Either there were transport networks to bring in food from outlying areas, or the spaces between the structures, or terraces on them were utilized to grow food (or a bit of both).

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Tens of thousands of buildings in a single swath - That alone is a hundred thousand people. Many children and multi-generational dwellings, as these things go... Assuming adjoining LIDAR sweeps would have the same results - however many sweeps beyond the adjoining...

That much population density definitely requires supply (it is too big for the land it is on to feed it)... Large acreages of farms must surround it... And those farms require two things that should be evident... Roads and water.

Roads are just as easily apparent as foundations are - Just the compression from use does not easily go away, not to mention gravel or corduroy leaving evidences. And while ditch irrigation to feed fields may not survive, canal-ways and feeder systems should be evident. Likewise sewage facilities. You just don't get that big without these things.

Well, you can get that big, you just won't stay that big.

We don't know that all those buildings were occupied, either. SOme may have been warehouses, temples, government structures...It's hard to say without boots on the ground and trowels in it.

Especially after your population contracts European diseases against which they had no immunity.  Early Spanish records say they passed endless villages and cites along their journey up the Amazon. Two decades later, no villages or cities or people were seen on the same river route.

Yes they were all occupied some point. Else why would any one build?

Large populations require storage, markets, etc. How many buildings are actually occupied outside of work hours today?
Why would extensive civilizations be any different?
Places of worship--not habitation.
Markets--not habitation.
Warehouses--not habitation.
Government buildings--not habitation.
Libraries and centers of learning--again, not habitation.

So some percentage of the structures involved will not be habitation space.
