Cenotes and the Chixculub Asteroid
In the Yucatan Travel Movie, we visit a cenote that few tourists go to because it is not a tourist bus destination. The following excerpt from a blog for students visiting the Yucatan Peninsula describes the probably association between cenotes or sinkholes and an ancient asteroid that hit earth.
The peninsula is largely an irregular limestone formation, comprised of cenotes, underground streams, and caverns. Cenotes, or sinkholes, are widespread in the northern lowlands and served as the main water source for many ancient and contemporary Mayans. A now famous ring of cenotes outlines what is thought to be the site where an ancient asteroid crashed. Located off the north coast near the town of Chicxulub, the site is believed to outline the shock wave of the event which dropped the surface limestone into the underground Yucatan aquifer.
