Since the first time I saw a exhibition on Shu and Shang artifacts, I have been convinced they were related to the Mayas.

And I dont really get why transatlantic contacts would have been absolutely impossible.

I did a lot of research but it's really a fringe theory. I found stuff with regards to dna repartition, etc. But nothing important.

And it's not a common meme around conspiracy theorists.

So I am mostly alone there :D

Does anyone see the point too?

Or am I really alone to see something of a relation between Shu and Maya outside of the dominant paradigm :)

What exactly do you mean by "related to the Mayas"? We are all related to each to a certain degree

I don't know how to answer you because you don't really provide any evidence, nor is there anything in the general Internet about this. Care to elaborate?

Is it a similar artistic style? I had the same feeling when looking at the person-on-a-horse statue, it is very mayan-esque to my naive eyes.
