the ruins of oaxaca

---

Ok, for this entry im gona do something i dont usually do. be honest.

the ruins in mexico are everywhere, supposedly leftovers from ancient civilizations who worked very hard to put them up for some reason i still dont know. So here we are, 2000 years later, and we find some ruins. we decide to put a gate round them, a ticket machine at the entrance and charge to go see, up to here its ok with me. what ticks me off is the faery tale they tell us with every ruin. they are not ruins at all! they are rebuilt completely to make the whole tourist experience much better, then they fence of all theve rebuilt to make us believe it could fall. if it does, just rebuild it again you morons! next to every building, there is a plaque telling you something like (the brackets part are phrases i would add): "this could have been an observatory (but really we have no fucking idea), where very tiny people used to look at the stars. (or it could e a whole in the roof, from a stupid kid playing footbal)" to make a bit of theater, they place stones randomly displayed on the floor as if the had fallen from somewhere.

i can just feel sorry for the zapotecs, turning in their graves as we idiots walk through what it could have been their toilets, thuinking its a planetarium or something as stupid. a wonderfull way to destroy the little cultural identity of a country can be to rebuild over ruins. shit im angry.

so, talking about the ruins, monte alban was cool. mitla was shit, and yagull was chilled. just check out the pictures.
