That’s EXACTLY the round-robin trip I wanted to take to explore Mexican ruins. There was, or was supposed to eventually be, a car ferry to run from Tampa to the Yucatan. Would’ve caught that over and probably been immediately kidnapped and held for ransom.

Sometimes i think that revealing ruins that cannot be protected until uncovered and placed in museums or otherwise protected is just inviting thieves to steal and sell archaeological items on the black market.
I wonder why the archaeologists don’t consider this when these news items are released.

Just some stuff I picked out of the Wiki page for the project...
On December 16, 2018, president López Obrador conducted a Mayan ritual to commemorate the start of construction on the Mayan Train project.
The first phase of the project is anticipated to open in the late 2020s, but tourism officials in the region have proposed accelerating work for a 2023 opening.[7][17]
As of June 2021 10% of the project had been completed.[23]
December 2019 consultation
In November 2020 the Regional Indigenous Council of Xpujil delivered a petition with 268,000 signatures to the Campeche Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources asking that the project be suspended because of environmental concerns.
As of January 2021 crews had uncovered more than 8000 ancient artifacts and structures during construction.[38]

“Archaeologists detect thousands of ruins along Mexico’s Maya Train route”
the most stunning part of this is that the Mayan’s had trains!

The question is the utility. Do they need the rail, or is just graft (like most rail projects here in the US seem to be...)?
IF the latter, they need to slow it down long enough to excavate the sites.

I didn’t know that the Mayans had trains.
That’s why I’m on your ping list.
