But not sure why this is noteworthy except that it confirms what we already knew (I’ve a PhD in Latin American history specializing in indigenous peoples). Drought really contributed to the Maya collapse.
However I take serious issue with some of the images. Chichén Itzá and Edzná were post-Classic sites, that is post collapse.
