Uxmal | The Pyramid of the Magician | The Maya, Dwarves, Serpents & Sorcery | Megalithomania

Join us on Patreon:   / megalithomania  . Part 1 of an exploration of Uxmal (meaning 'Thrice Built'), a spectacular Maya site in the Yucatan of Mexico (watch part 2 here:    • Uxmal | The Governor's Palace, Great Pyram...  ). It is a classic period site with pre-classic foundations and megalithic elements that are often overlooked.The Pyramid of the Magician has five construction phases and local legend states it was built by a dwarf in one night who challenged the king of Uxmal in a battle of wills. The dwarf was hatched from an egg and brought up by a sorceress before he became king. He was also said to have used 'whistling' to levitate stones and create a Sacbe (sacred white road) between Uxmal and Kabah. The nearby Nunnery Quadrangle is also visited that shows stunning symbols of plumed serpents, the Tlaloc rain god (who was leader of the Quinametzin Giants) and other beautiful artwork in stone. Part 2 (coming soon) investigates more of the site looking at the geodetic and megalithic elements that could suggest this is much older that realised.
