Maya Collapse: Not a Total Wipeout!

Ancient Maya skeletons near Copán just spilled the tea: the Maya civilization didn’t vanish overnight!

Turns out, outsiders mixed in, dynasties rose and fell, but the Maya’s genetic legacy stuck. Basically, the Maya didn’t disappear—they adapted and survived. Wild how much history bones can tell! #MayaCivilization #AncientHistory #Genetics #Science
