peoples?

Another Example of the Paradigm Shift

Originally there were many explanations for the great structures found by the Conquistadors in Mexico. Some said they were built by people from Atlantis, James Churchward said the Pacific Ocean continent of Mu, others pointed to a lost tribe of Israel, or maybe what is now known as Libya.
Until recently, it was believed by some that the Olmecs were responsible for the advances in Mayan culture and for others, it arose independently.
Now further evidence indicates that it was neither. Findings from Ceibal, the oldest Mayan ceremonial site discovered so far predates the Olmec site known as La Venta by 200 years. In the article, “Oldest Maya Sun Observatory Hints at Origin of Civilization,” the author surmises that the rise in civilization, (i.e., village planning, astronomical observation, etc) came about through the interaction of the peoples in the region.
More research is necessary to solidify the findings and nail down the particulars, but it is evidence that the paradigm is shifting and there are no absolutes.
Have a great day.
