Good Afternoon Professor, this video seemed like it would be a great video, but unfortunately it is not working.
okay I will check it out
I had the same problem as Jaime, when trying to click play the video says it has been removed.
hi guys, thanks for pointing this out. Going to try to fix it now.
I thought this video was interesting. All the techniques that were used seem impressive to me. Like using the hydroponics for agriculture. I think even for their time they had ineradicable ideas that helped them cope with daily life.
I think that this video was very informative. Just to be safe, I searched it up on YouTube. Great video!
Excellent video ! I liked a lot, especially because is talking about my country (Mexico). I am very proud of it :D
I find very interesting the development of agriculture (hydroponics) without the use of technology.
I remember that in High school I had to do hydroponics, and it was really difficult.
This was a very informative documentary. I hadn't realized that the Aztecs had invented such an advance agricultural system. I actually thought the theory of Hydroponics was a recent discovery. Shows how much I know... Great video professor.
I learned a lot I didn’t know about Mesoamerica. I enjoyed how the organic farming was so rich and fertile and they didn’t even use fertilizer. I found it interesting you could buy the mud in pots at the local markets. If only we could be all organic today and support our local shops.
I can't help but feel bad for the natives...their lost their of life... :/
I am glad that the video was able to play, it was a nice and informative watch. It really is incredible how 3/4 of all medicine used in the world come from the forests. I totally agree with the person in the video, cures for the most horrible diseases in the world could be out there waiting to be discovered.
Oops! I forgot some words in my last comment. I meant to say "...lost their way of life..."
This documentary was certainly informative, I wish I had watched it before learning about the Aztecs, Mayas and Incas in class. I was able to relate information spoken about in class to facts presented in the video. Overall very informative.
I was able to see it:) Beautiful images from Peru and Mexico. I really enjoy watching nature and history!
Awesome video, had to say one of my favorites because of the beauty of Peru and Mexico
This is a very informative documentary. It shows how beautiful Peru and Mexico are. Very interesting facts.
I find it so interesting that these empires were so advanced, especially with the hydroponics, without the use of modern technology. After watching this video, I can compare it to the facts I learned about them in class.
Great video. Although it wasn't mentioned, the Mayan calendar ends in 2012, but it didn't mean that the world was meant to end in 2012.
I love learning about the Aztecs and Mayans and this video was very interesting and fun to watch. It was cool to see how the chinampas actually worked. I didn't realize that the land they were planting their crops on were actual floating islands that they could move. Very cool.

The film was great. It just reinforced many thing that I already knew and introduced many new things that I did not know about the Meso-American empires.

I loved learning about the Aztecs sport. My favorite part was when they showed how the rubber ball was made and tested. I like chemistry so watching the process was interesting.
Cool video! I learned some new things I did not know about these Native Americans.
