Treasure Hunt all over the World

As everyone expected, the facade of the Mayan pyramid buried under the small hill in front of us is indeed decorated with a lot of gold, making the pulse metal detector ring non-stop.

Not only that, around this Mayan pyramid, several exploration teams have also detected a lot of gold buried deep underground, and the amount is quite astonishing.

As for the number of other things, such as gems, statues, steles, pottery, etc., it is not known yet, and the results can only be known after excavation and cleaning.

After basically finding out the scope of the Mayan pyramid, Ye Tian ordered the members of the joint exploration team to excavate from all sides of the small hill at the same time to speed up the progress.

The rest of the large and small treasures scattered around the Mayan pyramid were only marked and recorded, and were not immediately excavated and cleared.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the soil and various flowers, plants and trees covering the Mayan pyramid were quickly shoveled down and piled up on the open space on one side.

Following everyone's actions, an ancient but resplendent Mayan pyramid gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes. After more than a thousand years, it radiated bright light again.

Just as Ye Tian expected, this Mayan pyramid is very short, with only two floors, including the golden temple on the top, only three floors, and the shape is relatively simple, revealing an ancient and vicissitudes of life.

On the flat top of this Mayan pyramid, there is a small golden temple, which enshrines a golden god statue, and there are four marble statues around the top of the tower, only 30 to 40 centimeters high, guarding the four directions respectively.

And on the facade of this Mayan pyramid, a lot of gold is decorated. Although there are a lot of grass, sawdust and soil hanging on it, it is mottled, but it radiates bright light, and everyone on the scene is a little dizzy.

Like the pyramids and temples discovered before, this ancient Mayan pyramid and the temple on the top of the tower are also engraved with Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns, as well as various exquisite decorations and murals.

Before the Mayan pyramid was completely cleaned up, many experts and scholars standing on the side had already rushed forward to appreciate and study this ancient Mayan pyramid. Everyone was very excited.

Ye Tian was the same, he and David also came to this Mayan pyramid, admiring this resplendent ancient pyramid.

In just a few moments, everyone has seen a lot from this Mayan pyramid and discussed it enthusiastically.

"This is a pyramid of Kukulkan,

That is the Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent. Judging from the shape of the pyramid and the statue of the Feathered Serpent in the golden temple on the top of the tower, this Mayan pyramid should have been built in BC, or even longer! "

"That's right! The image of the Feathered Serpent God in the early days of the Mayan Empire is very different from that in the later period. The golden statue of the Feathered Serpent God in front of you is obviously from the early Mayan Empire, and the hieroglyphs carved on the golden temple also prove this point!"

While admiring the ancient Mayan pyramid, many experts and scholars discussed it enthusiastically. Everyone was fascinated, very focused and devoted.

Ye Tian, ​​who was standing a little outside, was also introducing the situation to David and Jason while admiring the resplendent Mayan pyramid.

"As Professor Douglas said, the image of the Feathered Serpent in the early Mayan Empire was not the same as that in the late Mayan Empire, and the status of the Feathered Serpent in the hearts of the Mayans was also different in different periods.

In the early days of the Mayan Empire, the status of the Feathered Serpent God was not very important. He only appeared as the wind god of the Nine Gods, and was the last of the Mayan Nine Gods. It rarely appeared in various stone carvings in the early Mayan Empire.

Perhaps it is for this reason that the feathered snake god's golden pyramid is so small, with only two floors, and it is located in the outer area of ​​the Golden City of the Mayan Empire, which is determined by the feathered snake god's status in the early days!

In the later period of the Mayan Empire, that is, during the heyday of the Mayan Empire, the status of the Feathered Serpent God has been greatly improved, and it occupies a dominant position in the belief of the Mayans. In many cases, the Feathered Serpent God and the Sun God are one!

Because of the different images of the Feathered Serpent God in different periods of the Mayan Empire and the different status in the Mayan beliefs, everyone agreed that this Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent God should be built in BC, which is not difficult to identify! "

Listening to Ye Tian's explanation, David, Jason, and a few others nodded slightly, understanding the origin of the magnificent Mayan pyramid in front of them.

In addition, they also had a new understanding of the Feathered Serpent god revered by the Mayans.

After appreciating it for a while, Ye Tian called to stop the excavation and cleaning work, and didn't let everyone clean up this magnificent Pyramid of Feathered Serpent God completely.

The reason for this is, of course, to save time.

The joint exploration team will explore the entire central axis of the Golden City and the rainforests on both sides of the central axis today, and find out the general situation of the Golden City of the Mayan Empire. There is not much time spent here.

As the order came out, the members of the exploration team who were cleaning up the Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent stopped their work and withdrew.

The same goes for those experts and scholars, who could only temporarily stop their research work and reluctantly return to Ye Tian's side.

"Steven, on the golden temple at the top of the pyramid, the Mayan hieroglyphs of the wind god are clearly engraved. Based on this alone, it can be said with certainty that this is the golden pyramid of the Feathered Serpent God, built in BC.

Regardless of the small size of this Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent, which only has two floors, it is extremely precious. This is probably the oldest surviving Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent, at least six or seven hundred years earlier than other Pyramids of the Feathered Serpent.

Because the status of the Feathered Serpent God was greatly improved in the later period of the Mayan Empire, the pyramids of the Feathered Serpent God built in the early days were basically overturned and rebuilt, or expanded on the original basis, and the construction was even more magnificent!

As a result, there are very few Pyramids of the Feathered Serpent built in the early days of the Mayan Empire. Who would have thought that such a resplendent early Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent still remained in the Golden City of the Mayan Empire!

By studying the hieroglyphs and patterns engraved on this pyramid, we can not only understand the situation in the early Mayan Empire, but also understand the belief in the Feathered Serpent God in the early Mayan civilization and the changes in this belief! "

Professor Delgado said excitedly, his eyes shining brightly.

The performances of the other experts and scholars were also the same, each of them was very excited, and everyone's face was shining brightly.

Ye Tian looked at these experts and scholars, then smiled and said loudly:

"Gentlemen, the discovery of the golden pyramid of the Feathered Serpent is undoubtedly a good start for today's exploration operation. Next, I believe that there will be more miracles and even greater surprises.

Well, the excavation and cleaning work of the Feathered Serpent God Pyramid will stop here for the time being. After we finish exploring the Golden City of the Mayan Empire and find out the basic situation here, we will dig and clean it later! .

At that time, everyone will have plenty of time to appreciate and study the golden main pyramid of the Feathered Serpent God, and study the Mayan hieroglyphs and patterns carved on the pyramid. Now, it's time for us to continue exploring! "

As he spoke, he pointed to the rainforest behind the golden pyramid of the Feathered Serpent God, and took the lead to step out towards the dense tropical rainforest.

Seeing his movements, the rest of the joint exploration team followed immediately. Everyone was full of energy and full of anticipation!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the others had entered the tropical rainforest ahead, and continued to explore along the central axis of the Golden City.

Behind them, a ray of sunlight pierced through the canopy and branches above the rainforest, and through a gap, it happened to shine on the ancient golden pyramid of Feathered Serpent God!

The next moment, this ancient and mottled Pyramid of Feathered Serpent suddenly radiated an incomparably bright golden light, setting off this lush tropical rainforest with resplendent gold!
