As much as the Spanish destroyed local cultures, this specific example was beyond their control. The classical mayas had been gone for half a millenium when they arrived. Originally Posted by ParanoiD84

They could, but then el tigre de la noche might fuck them up when their back is turned. Originally Posted by Taftvalue

- once you are dropped to the jungle, you are cut from all backup, no food, no medicine, just that you can bring with you for 20-30 days
I'm pretty sure I have mentioned money. Archeologists and explorers are not rich ppl in common. They are adventurers, sponsored by someone in the hope of a great discovery that yields profit to everyone involved.
One movie comes to my mind suddenly: Contact (1997). No sponsors, no bullshit.
Oh, and there are the laws of the country too. You can't simply march into the area and take whatever you can find there.
TL;DR: You are delusional and infantile if you think it's so easy for an outsider to conquer the wild jungle.Last edited by mmoc9aac36c166; 2018-02-13 at 07:08 AM.

It's good to know that you promote intolerance against an entire group of people. I believe that's called racism. Originally Posted by Elba
