About Me:
My name is David Hoffmann and for the last decade I have been traveling around the world in search of unique culture, food and history! Since starting Davidsbeenhere in 2008, I have traveled to 71 countries and over 1,000 destinations, which I welcome you to check out on my KZread Channel, blog and social medias.
I focus a great deal on food and historic sites, as you probably have seen! I love to experience the different flavors that each destination has to offer, whether it’s casual Street food or gourmet restaurant dining. I’m also passionate about learning the local history and culture.

Indigenous people of El Salvador are not wiped out. They may not be as numerous, but they are still around. They still practice many of their rituals and traditions, however their language is disappearing. Awesome videos!

legiterally wtf depends.... after a DNA study done... salvadorans are predominantly indigneous. The problem in EL Salvador is self denial and xenophobia.
I didn't know my ancestors home had pyramids there...nice video bro...im going to go eat some pupusas now
I love el tazumal, we always visit whenever I go home. Since my ancestors were said to be merchants that worked in el tazumal. Such a beautiful place, I love this video because I feel at home.
I've been there and it's quite amazing. Thinking of how massive this is and how long it must have taken with only stone tools. Us Salvadorans need to remember our native heritage too.

1) The pipils spoke Nawat not Nahuatl, both mutually intelligible languages but still considered different and 2) The pipils (along with the nicarao people of Nicaragua and northern Costa Rica) are descended from the Toltecs who migrated to Central America centuries before the Aztecs rose to any prominence in central Mexico
Mayan blood and proud ✊🏾💃🏾
It's been years since I was there. I'm not sure about now, but back then you could climb the temple all the way up to the top. The area is very unique. When I was there it was so quiet. It was very peaceful. Definitely one of my favorite places to visit in El Salvador other than the beaches with the nice pacific waters.

What galactic bloodline/Seed are the Mayans i wonder, specifically from El Salvador? It's a longing question I have.
@WALDENSOFTWARE

So far seems like an ab-origin bloodline (not aboriginal) as their direction doesn't align with the rest of the galactic theory races of earth although the direction does begin to align as neighbor races with genetic modified mutations to be on par with the rest in the present era.
I'm very lucky to have been there before it's a beautiful place
thanks for being the first commenter!
I used to live like 20 minutes away from there and I just can't believe the fact that never, never been there at all, and I can't remember why I didn't go with my class when I was attending 5th grade in el salvador school.
liked and watched again

Wow.......... What a view........hmmm
This is where the story begins...
Indeed I have.
Awesome
And yes growing up in Europe, studying in three different cultures, being married with a Salvadorian that grow up in US plus working mostly abroad between America, Europe and Africa I consider myself more of a gypsy and I'm proud of it!

Your exactly a perfect example of a tree with out a Root i feel bad for your Kids going through life not knowing who they are or where there roots come from. I'm Half Salvadoran and have studied El Salvador's history and i only corrected your incorrect assumption that El Salvador was Only Maya and you got mad because i corrected you. I know my history and when i do have kids best assure i'm gonna teach them history there notgonna be a tree without a root.
Me acuerdo de mi patria
I mean there's so much more to see in this country than history! But I guess you're mostly into history and food...
Hewn out of solid rock and no one bats an eyelid or offers any attempt at an explination?

What about the pipil and lenca
That's templo MAYA
Good video. But why you did not put subtitles. That way more people understand what you're explaining.

El video es genial pero el audio es muy malo
I was born in the USA but I'm 55% native from El Salvador,41%european 25%of it from Spain and 9%black well known as a "Pardo" like a jaguar 🐆
Anastasio Aquino was not a Maya he was a Nahua speaking Pipil from La Paz i know exactly who he was. You make no sense at all just because you traveled the world and you are an Elitist dosen't mean you know history. If you think Only Mayas where in El Salvador and forget about the Lenca and the Pipil who where a big part of El Salvador and not related to the Maya then you don't know Salvadoran History.
First of all there is no jade in El Salvador and the guide starts saying it is the place where jade was made?? Come on dude. Again, there is no Jade in El Salvador. Wishful thinking!!! Plus he mentioned about the ball game which he has it all wrong again. Also, the pipiles didn’t have a calendar dude, don’t pretend you know cause you are so wrong!!!

Salvadorean culture Is also about a denial culture, we Salvadorean don’t know about it or because for 300 years our Salvadorean government has denied it : our African culture , we Salvadorean are the mixture of indigenous/ African and Europeans ( spanish/ Arabic....we are Afro mestizo..

El Salvador is not Maya at all.
whats wring with History you can't move foward or know what El Salvador realy is unless you know it's history. It's like Marcus Garvey said A person without knowledge of his History is like a tree without a root. so i guess your a tree without a root then.
Natives American !
PUBG?
To my understanding according to what my High School teachers taught me Europeans did have water because it Snows in Europe but it was so cold that they did not shower everyday and only showered once or twice a week. To hide their stench from not showering the Europeans invented perfume. Remember it snows in Europe not in Central America.

It rarely snows in Greece, also in Italy it really does not snow too much. They did have excellent plumbing in Italy. Not sure how often they showered.
You're rude dude! I'm not a tree without root but a Daddy with two daughters which are not interested into history at all. You will find out once you have some kids yourself, until that moment stop to tell the whole world how to live their lifes or how to spend their vacations!!!
It is only for Salvadorian possible to become member of a political party & actually it is not possible to oppress indigenous ppl since they basically wiped out. This just in general for ppl interested in El Salvador (after I got personally insulted I will not continue to argue with this specific "expert" of El Salvador): El Salvador has way more things to see than only history, like beaches, nature, volcanos, friendly people, … (all activities are mostly possible for family with kids, too)
Actually in many clases in El Salvador they call the different classes from the same year Pipil, Maya, ... But I give up since you belive that you know better than myself what I'm trying to say. But please... a) learn English b) look for yourself before you tell other how to live their life c) should you have kids one day listen to them plus their mother before you make travel plans for all of them Have a nice weekend
I'd rather see more of the Ruins instead of you guys.
Esas ruinas son pipiles no Mayas. Ahora todos quieren ser Mayas!!!!
psound sytem First of all, if you want someone to explain something to you, how about you make it so that people can reply to you so that they can explain. The came is called Pok-a-Tok... why not just Google this stuff?
Last but not least you're roots are Maya, hmmm? I guess you mean Spain, right? Only shows me how much you know about your history, coz Maya blood even more their culture is in El Salvador pretty much wiped out. You may google "Anastasio Aquino"...
