Mayan Land Regionilization

After Reading a National Geographic article, I was intrigued by the discovery of the bones of 6 humans found in a Mayan Sinkhole in Chichén Itzá, Mexico, the location and items in the sinkhole imply that these humans were the victims of the Mayan cultural practice of sacrificing. Mayan culture put an emphasis on human and animal sacrifice because they believed that it was their way of servicing the gods in exchange for help with bad situations that the Mayans had little control of. Since the Mayans held the gods in the utmost regard, sacrificing for them and building temples for their worship, I wonder what the Mayan’s would think of the regionalization that has taken place on their home turf. The regionalization process started with the Spanish conquest and ended with the Mexican Revolution, through all that I would imagine the Mayan’s would be displeased about losing their land, happy that there is still a majority of people that believe in some form of god, but mad about the issues in Mexico that the rest of the world is observing. When there are constant drug wars, rapes, murders that are not in the name of god, lack of family structure, and poverty, you can only imagine that the Mayans would be disgusted by how the regionalization of their area has led to the lack of values in not on the Mexican Culture, but everywhere else near and far.
