Chak Ek' = Great Star (Chak = Great, Ek' = Star)
K'in Ahau = Lord Sun (K'in = Sun/day, Ahau = lord/king, basically a title)
Tried looking up what Ak Na'ak meant, (Ak=Turtle, but can't figure out what Na'ak means. Closest I can figure is nak which means Captive. So Captive Turtle? Doesn't seem right lol.

I feel like I've learned nothing by watching this video because I'm so confused what any of that myth was supposed to explain or be. was entertaining though. just a bit overwhelming.

Is it just me, or does this sound like one of those metaphors for a major religious upheaval?
Along the lines of all the stuff the Egyptians were pulling with their sun gods.

Makes me think of supernatural with Chuck doing something similar with Sam and dean and Cain and Abel does every culture or religion have a story like this? Most likely huh?

If the ancient people were here, they would call us savages, then go play soccer with someone's head. sacrifice a few virgins, etc. Hey! They didn't HAVE TV, OK?

The Mayan calendar system is the most accurate calendar in all of recorded human history. More accurate then the gregorian calendar used today.
