BANZAI7 NEWs--Ringing abandoned pyramids are nine palaces "frozen in time" that may help unravel the mystery of the ancient Maya, reports an archaeological team.
Hidden in the hilly jungle, the ancient site of Kiuic (KIE-yuk) was one of dozens of ancient Maya centers abandoned in the Puuc region of Mexico's Yucatan about 10 centuries ago. The latest discoveries from the site may capture the moment of departure.
"The people just walked away and left everything in place," says archaeologist George Bey of Millsaps College in Jackson Miss., co-director of the Labna-Kiuic Regional Archaeological Project. "Until now, we had little evidence from the actual moment of abandonment, it's a frozen moment in time.
But we suspect arrogance, corruption and greed played an important part."

Hidden in the canyons of lower Manhattan, the ancient site of Wall Street was one of dozens of ancient banking centers abandoned about 10 centuries ago. The latest discoveries from the site may capture the moment of departure.
"After the sucker investors just walked away, the bankers walked and left everything in place," says archaeologist Georgie Boy. "Until now, we had little evidence from the actual moment of abandonment, it's a frozen moment in time.
One thing is certain, arrogance corruption and greed were the major cause."

Fortuitously, we signed a lease on 9/10/01 so we could leave our Wall Street offices at the end of the month. We actually moved on 9/18/01. Originally, they were going to tear down the building we were in to make more room for the NYSE. I'm sure you can see how well that worked out.
