Chapter 2453: Location of Golden City

Standing on the top of the pyramid and admiring the scenery for a while, and experiencing the feeling of overlooking the Mayan civilization, Ye Tian cleared up his emotions and looked at the stone slab under his feet and the collapsed temple on the top of the tower.

The stone slabs on the top of the tower are all engraved with Mayan hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns and decorations. They are on each stone slab and arranged in order, looking like a book carved on the stone slab.

In the past one hundred years, after countless archaeologists and philologists research, these Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns have been translated.

These texts describe the history of the Copan Kingdom, some of the myths and legends of the Mayan Empire, as well as some sentences to worship the gods and pray for blessing.

The many patterns carved on the stone slabs include sacrificial scenes, farming, hunting, and war scenes, which vividly reflect the life scenes of the ancient Mayans.

On the four corners of the top platform of the tower, there is a statue of half a meter high.

These four statues are all mutilated, two of them are even half of them, but they are still vaguely recognizable.

They are a mighty cougar, a colorful parrot, a sea eagle fluttering wings, and a dangerous python.

The four marble statues are located at the four corners of the top of the tower, with tigers standing on a dragon plate, overlooking the entire Copan Valley, guarding the main pyramid.

Most of the temple in the center of the tower has collapsed, and the condition of the remaining part is not better than that, it looks shaky.

In front of this temple stands half a broken totem pole with a statue of Quetzalcoatl carved on it. Unfortunately, the upper part of the statue has long since disappeared, and only the lower part is left.

In addition to the Quetzalcoatl, this totem pole is also engraved with some Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns, which have already been translated by archaeologists.

The temple behind the totem pole is also engraved with many Mayan hieroglyphs and various patterns, mainly various sacrificial patterns, and some astrological patterns.

In those astrological patterns, you can vaguely see several famous constellations, such as Orion.

Obviously, this temple on the top of the tower is not only a temple for sacrifices, but also an astronomical observatory for observing celestial phenomena.

It is conceivable that after the completion of the main pyramid, the priests and scholars of the Copan Kingdom have been looking up at the sky here for many years and exploring the secrets of the universe.

The result of this is that the Mayans made extremely amazing achievements in astronomy and mathematics, which are breathtaking.

Ye Tian glanced at the top of the tower quickly, knowing the situation here in a blink of an eye.

Immediately afterwards, he turned on perspective and began to explore the secrets hidden on the top of the pyramid.

In the Mayan temple that collapsed mostly, he saw several interesting patterns, telling people an ancient story.

The pattern portrays a group of Copan Maya warriors, escorting a group of captives or slaves through the rainforest. Those prisoners and slaves seem to carry heavy things on their backs, trekking hard, and even crawling on the ground.

It is a pity that this set of murals is not complete. The starting point of the Copan Mayans in the painting and where they finally arrived are no longer clear.

The reason is simple. Only the middle part of this group of murals remains, and the parts at the end and the end have long since disappeared. Naturally, it is impossible to solve the mystery.

In addition to this group of murals, Ye Tian also saw many murals and texts, as well as many symbols and decorations of unknown meaning, inside and outside the temple, but there was no surprise.

Next, he looked at the ground again and began to explore the top of the tower under his feet and the secrets hidden inside the pyramid.

The first thing he saw were the Mayan hieroglyphs and various patterns carved on the ground on the top of the tower. These things have been studied countless times and there is no secret.

Then, his gaze penetrated the slab on the ground at the top of the tower and looked inside the pyramid.

At first, all he saw were blocks of granite boulders tightly stitched together, showing him the mysterious and superb architectural art of the Maya, which was amazing.

His gaze stretched down for about four meters, and the picture in his eyes only changed.

A slab with a pattern carved on it, unlike other granite boulders, suddenly broke into his field of vision.

The pattern carved on that stone slab is a huge cave in a dense forest of mountains. The mountain where the cave is located seems to be familiar.

At the entrance of the cave, there stands a statue of the sun god. Looking along the direction of the sun **** statue, you can see a pyramid-shaped building and many Mayans kneeling on the ground and praying.

The moment Ye Tian saw this pattern, an ecstasy flashed in his eyes, and he almost cheered.

He knew exactly what this pattern carved on the granite slab and buried deep in the pyramid meant.

What it points to is the famous Mayan Empire Golden City, which is exactly the goal of his trip to Honduras to explore.

Ye Tian looked at the pattern seriously, branded it deeply in his mind, and then quickly adjusted his emotions and continued to see through.

Soon after, he saw a man holding a thick and thin granite pillar against the granite slab engraved with the location of the Golden City.

The location of this granite pillar is a dark space with a small area, just below the top of the pyramid.

On this granite pillar, there is a huge feathered snake god. The shape is the same as the sculpture of the feathered snake **** he saw on the fourth level of the pyramid for the first time, but it is more exquisite.

It is close to the shrine on the top of the pyramid, and only the Quetzalcoatl **** most worshipped by the Mayans is qualified to be placed here.

In addition to the Quetzalcoatl statue, in this dark space, Ye Tian also saw several other sculptures, mostly head sculptures, including human heads and animal heads, such as jaguars and sea eagles.

In addition, on the ground of the secret room, there are many dazzling gems of various colors.

Different from the rough gemstones found before, these gemstones have been cut and ground, and they have begun to take shape, more beautiful and more valuable.

Because the age is too old, the surface of these gems is as if covered with a layer of dust, and it looks black and white. With a little treatment, it can emit an incomparably bright light.

Many Mayan hieroglyphs, various exquisite patterns, and many complicated patterns are carved on the walls of this secret room and on the stone pillar engraved with the feather serpent god.

Although Ye Tian didn't know Mayan hieroglyphs, he could recognize which hieroglyphs had been seen before and which had been discovered for the first time.

There are several pictographs discovered for the first time in this secret room, which is undoubtedly of great research value.

And those exquisite patterns are not difficult to recognize. What they portray is the history of the Copan Kingdom and the Mayan Empire. Among them is a man wearing a mask of bird god, who looks very tall and conspicuous.

That guy should be the founder of Copan Kingdom, the royal blue parrot.

At the bottom of this secret room, a staircase leads to the lower secret room, which should be a larger space.

But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ye Tian's perspective did not continue downward, but closed it back and ended the perspective.

The reason why he did this is very simple, because he already knew the situation in the secret room below.

During the previous ascent of the tower, he had seen it thoroughly, so naturally there was no need to explore it again.

After finishing the perspective, Ye Tian first looked at the guys under the pyramid who wanted to see through, then took off the backpack behind him, opened it, and took out the head of the six-pointed golden scepter.

Next, he pretended to study the head of the six-pointed golden scepter, then turned and walked towards the temple, and came to the half-broken totem pole.

The next moment, he looked down at the head of the six-pointed golden scepter in his hand, and then looked up at the lush mountain forest in the distance.
