WOW! 15-Year-Old Discovers Lost Mayan City Using Star Maps & Google Earth
EDITOR’S NOTE: Wow! Just WOW! Major kudos and respect to the young man that has just discovered one of the five largest Mayan cities using nothing more than star maps, google earth and his brilliant mind!
William Goudary, 15, from Quebec, has located the Mayan city of K’aak Chi or “Mouth Of Fire”, complete with upto 30 buildings and a pyramid by working out that the Mayan cities were aligned to the stars overhead.
AS ABOVE, SO BELOW!
William has trumped the world of archaeology by daring to think outside the box and using his imagination to join the dots that were there for all to see for those that went before him.
Perhaps the scientists that have worked for years on gaining degree’s and Phd’s should hang their heads in shame after a child has come along and shown them how its done!
Now, what will lie in this new Mayan city? What secrets will it hold? Could there be more “mayan calander” type relics? Perhaps a crystal skull? Time will tell, thanks to the brilliant young William Goudary!
They may have lived some 1,700 years ago, but the ancient Maya had an incredible knowledge of celestial bodies, which they believed influenced everything from harvest to death.
Now a 15-year-old boy has studied astronomical charts devised by these ancient Mexican people, as well as satellite photos, to pinpoint the location of a forgotten Mayan city.
William Gadoury, from Quebec has named the ‘lost city’ in the Yucatan jungle K’aak Chi, or Mouth of Fire.

Satellite images suggest the lost city could be among the largest built by the ancient civilisation, which thrived between 300 and 700 AD.
Wondering why the ancient people built their cities far away from rivers and in inhospitable mountains prompted the teenager to look to the sky for answers, because the Mayans worshiped the stars.
Gadoury came up with a theory the Maya built their cities so they lined up with star constellations.
The teenager analysed 23 Mayan constellations to realise if he connected them, the 142 stars corresponded to the position of 177 Mayan cities.

The teenager used satellite images from the Canadian Space Agency and Google Earth to search the dense jungle for any signs of buildings – possible evidence is shown above
