A little 15-year-old boy genius has found an entire Maya city by studying the stars!

It’s a hypothesis I believe very strongly – that many sites around the world are in fact mirrors of the stars above, and many places can be easily correlated to the heavens – the pyramids at Giza, the Nazca geoglyphs (some argue against that), Angkor Wat, the north American earthworks (Newark especially), and many other places.
William Gadoury, the 15-year-old Canadian who has found the Maya city, may in fact be the first person to practically prove beyond doubt that our ancestors were mimicking the heavens in ancient times with their building projects.
Our ancestors were obsessed with the stars, and that’s not surprising since without light pollution they would have been an impressive sight. It’s hard to imagine what questions they were asking and what they wanted to know, but it’s equally clear that as the onset of belief systems took hold, various structures were built to “reach the stars” or connect with the gods. Pyramids are a classic example (excluding the Giza complex) as their very architecture and design clearly shows attempts to reach as high as possible. Pyramids were often used by those in power (a high building is a display of power) and they were clearly intended for priests to be in “direct contact” with the gods of the heavens above. They were also used as observatories so the priests and / or astronomers could follow the movements of the stars and planets.
In many sites around the world it is clear that certain structures were built to mimic the positions of the stars, and that engineering complexity can be observed when those structures were built to follow particular star movements, or positions. For example, Stonehenge, like many other monuments, is clearly aligned with the solstices, but it wasn’t solely used as an observatory, and therein lies the engineering ingenuity. To combine star tracking with other elements of engineering shows our ancestors were not only adept at building complex structures, but they were actually far better at it than we are today, given the techniques and tools at their disposal.
What do I mean exactly? Ask any engineer, architect or any professional person in the building trade if we could build the Great Pyramid at Giza and they will all laugh in your face – we cannot do it, not today, not tomorrow, and probably not ever. Graham Hancock has always been correct – we have lost an episode of human history and ingenuity.
Well done William Gadoury for making his discovery of a Maya city by studying the stars – Indian Jones has nothing on this kid!
