If it's Mayan, then those are not hieroglyphs.
Great read and an interesting story:

“Wighing in at 75-meters tall with seven distinct districts all with their own purpose such as Temples, palaces, markets, housing, administration the magnitude of the Toniná pyramid compares even to that of the Tlachihualtepetl (artifical mountain) pyramid of Cholula.”
Obviously early Trump.

Maybe this would help.

The question is, though, does Ben Carson know about this?

“Researchers have hopes that further translation of the hieroglyphics may uncover the reasons as to why the Mayan civilization collapsed in this region.”
liberal archeologists are puzzled that a non-white society based on slavery, child and adult sacrifice and absolute monarchy would ever collapse.

I like the Mayan cartoon, with the punchline: “You know, they only sacrifice Virgins”

The Maya writing system is correctly called “hieroglyphs,” that is, “sacred writing,” because, according to their own writings, they believe their writing system was given to them by the gods.
I have that book on request at the library right now. It might even arrive before I get there this afternoon.

There is a technical distinction according to Coe between the Mayan glyphs and hieroglyphs. IIRC, the Mayan glyphs express phonemes while hieroglyphs represent words.

That is just a Clinton Foundation slush fund vault.

Why, it may have sub-basements that go down for miles! It’s YUUUUUUGE.
