Many people believe the ancient Mayans died away

The Maya live in the Yucatan Peninsula, which is in southern Mexico, and also includes parts of northern Central America.

With all of the buzz about the Mayan Prophecies for December 21, 2012, some people believe that the Maya are a dead race–that there are no Maya alive today. I guess these people believe this since the 2012 Mayan prophecy was made by the ancient Maya, there must not be any modern Maya. Not so.

There’s so much talk about the Maya, but there aren’t many people who know who they are. The Maya are an indigenous group. They live in Central America in Mexico. As of the year 2000, there were seven million of them. They are the largest indigenous group in the Americas. According to some sources, they may be the largest indigenous group in the world.

They suffered under the Spanish who tried to annihilate them in the “Caste War.” It started in 1847 and lasted for 54 years ending on May 5th, 1901. The Spanish slaughtered the Maya, trying to totally get rid of them.

But the Maya people themselves are very determined and steadfast and are producing lots of babies. I have that on good authority that they are replenishing their numbers.
