The Mayan civilization crashed, burned and depopulated long before the Conquistidores showed up.

A persistent Bermuda High off the coast served to stop rainfall in the Yucatan for a couple of hundred years.

The tour guides in Costa Maya say the Spanish Priests singlehandedly destroyed the Maya culture. Everywhere. Also that stories of human sacrifice and cannabalism were all fabrications. Guess they’ll have to revise that.

Guess that "ritual mutilation" didn't do much good then.

I can think of lotsa better things to do with my genitals; all including my wife ;-)
