  1. El soldado que sirvió para hacer este retrato es. José Serapio Guitierrez. En aquel entonces tenía 18 años.
  2. No soy una persona woke( progresista) para ofenderme con facilidad. Opino que están bien, tampoco es que se sepa demasiado de los Lencas. La imagen más icónica de un Lenca es la del indio Lempira en el billete que lleva su nombre. Está basado en un soldado hondureño Lenca para retratar a su antepasado.
  3. son diferentes biomas, aún que parezca una región pequeña. Comayagua es un Valle, de los pocos que Honduras tiene. Es normal que no tengas referencias. Se descubrió en 2019, lo que significa que hay más por descubrir. Y que mi información histórica de mi país ahora es algo obsoleta.(época precolonial) Siempre este territorio se ha visto como frontera con poco desarrollo cultural.
  4. @Freagarach What do you think about putting a capture condition? @wowgetoffyourcellphone
  5. Sorry I skipped that part. So we have... Women Healers. CS. Fishing Boats. Trade boat. Trade unit.
  6. . Some siege ideas, and battle ideas, concerning defense and capture. This idea comes from capturing but it's taken to another level. The idea is, some buildings must have a requirement before been captured ( or process to start capturing. The idea is "a building is captureable if you you fill some condition to do". For example with defensive towers, can be capturable only if certain HP is reduced to specific (%). this would apply to Fortress. The second is consequences of this. In this case certain structures should be slower to repair. Defensive buildings only.
  7. Iron natural formation https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banded_iron_formation Iron ore.
  8. I believe that some metals should have Part of the model should include a "ground texture" . It has a name in the game that. It would be like rust color. [Example from Stronghold Crusader II] The idea of the post is to see how the textures would look for the design of different metals. The second thing is, what metals do you propose to include?
  9. The place is considered the oldest human settlement discovered in Honduras, since it is estimated that it was occupied between 3000 B.C. and 200 A.D. According to his research, the archaeologist Joesink Mandebille (1986) affirmed that the abandonment of the area was perhaps due to the loss of crops and subsequent famine due to a rain of ash from the eruption of a volcano in El Salvador. Eventually the monarchical system fell, giving way to the cacicazgo, a system of government that still prevails in some regions of the country. Findings All that has been found to date by anthropologists of North American origin is believed to be vestiges of the base of the Lenca culture found by the conquistadors in 1537. Among the main objects of incalculable value found in the sector are some clay whistles that were used to call animals, seals to decorate fabrics, figures to represent royalty, funeral offerings, vessels to store seeds and food, as well as objects of personal decoration. According to local guides of the Archaeological Museum of Comayagua, during the formative period from 1,000 BC to 250 AD at the site known as El Chilcal in Yarumela, La Paz, an indigenous society developed that founded the political capital and was the seat of a prominent chiefdom. This seems to have been around 400 years BC. C. and continued until almost the beginning of the classic period, that is, around the year 250 of our era. Research conducted by anthropologists and authorities of the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History (IHAH) confirm that the mounds of the main group of Yarumela are almost five times larger than those built in any of the secondary centers contemporary to it. It is also noteworthy that the mounds were scattered at intervals of 5 to 10 kilometers along the mountainous fringe of the Comayagua valley. The archaeological site found in Yarumela is dominated by the so-called structure 101, known by the inhabitants of the sector as Cerrito de David, which is about 20 meters high. Within this area there is a 9 meter high central plaza, another structure on the banks of the Humuya River and four three meter high mounds. In addition, in less evident groupings and scattered throughout the site, there are ten mounds and several destroyed platforms, which means that the proto-Lenca sites were extensive.
  10. It looks like the places I have shown you in photos. Chilcal is not in Comayagua, it is in the neighboring province; La Paz. Comayagua can be seen from the archaeological site view.( In the video)
  11. A video about Sula Valley. According to this researcher in Cerro Palenque the canoes unloaded before traveling and entering the sea.
  12. https://ihah.hn/ Official site. The first Honduran Settlement was around 900-800 B.C. It's called Chilcal. the challenge for Honduran archaeologists (according to the law) is to make it known to everybody. It is of Olmec influence(Olmecoid according to the interviewed expert).
  13. My aunt spoke with her friend, an expert in Latin American History (University of Florida) Laura Gálvez. This screenshot is from a magazine of female personalities from UNAH.(Honduran University). She told me that if I wanted to know more I should go to ask Institute of Anthropology and History from Honduras in our old down town(historic old city). this is the former presidential palace now it is a museum. Said she was an old man from United States of America Who came to make the discovery of that settlement Lenca.
  14. you can ask off topic rule from moderation, this way split the topic.
  15. Yarumela was a town (un pueblo) before, my great-great-grandmother was from Comayagua.
  16. Con razón no sabía, es reciente. --It's recent, no wonder they never taught to me it at elementary school or high school or college.--- On April 11, 2019, the mayor of the town of Yarumela and the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History with the support of the national police of Honduras, restored structure 102 and managed to rehabilitate a good part of the site, installing signs where there is information about the history of the place. It is currently open to both national and foreign public.
  17. Yarumela also known as El Chilcal, was one of the sites located in Honduras and based around the Middle Formative era in Mesoamerican history, occupied between 1000 BC and AD 200 by the ancestros of the Lencan culture also known as the Proto-lencan people. During its heyday at the end of the Preclassic mesoamerican period was a popular trade center, especially for precious commoditiesLocated sixty kilometres south of the Los Naranjos, the site of Yarumela yielded information that led archaeologists to believe that it was another imposing Middle Formative center. This information also led archaeologists to believe that Yarumela as a center had a focus on precious commodities. Much like the settlement found at Los Naranjos, Yarumela’s area was protected by the location in which it was found. On the eastern side, the settlement at Yarumela was protected by the Humuya River, which was a branch off of the Ulua, and on the western side it was protected by a large man-made ditch. The settlement at Yarumela was considered to be a large and prosperous trade center; archaeologists determined this from the numerous large structure mounds they found on the site as well as some of the material artifacts located there as well. Artifacts like shells, jadeite, obsidian fragments as well as exotic ceramics. Ni idea que esto estaba en Honduras. I had no idea this was in Honduras.lol.
  18. The complementary names "Valladolid" or "Country of the Higueras" were those that the Spaniards gave it, but it kept the original name of the place, which is purely indigenous. Some differ in its etymology, but most agree that it is composed of «koma» (which in Lenca dialect means Huge amount of land) and «Jawa», (that means water) its true meaning being «abundant land of water». During the Pre-Columbian era the valley in which the city is located was populated by Lenca people, a Mesomaerican native culture that still prevails in Honduras. Archaeological remains such as Yarumela show that these natives have populated the valley since approximately 1,000 B.C. The flat topography and subtropical climate helped these natives to prosper and built its own societies and towns, most of its economic activities were the control of trade routes that connected the Caribbean sea to the Pacific Ocean. During the colonization of the American continent the Spaniard conquistadors founded a rich valley with different Lencan towns, most of them well organized with a high social stratification. these natives were the ones that gave a well-done resistance during the conquest of Honduras.
  19. Parece la zona del Valle de Comayagua, la antigua capital de Honduras.
