They dived into the pools because they already knew that ancient Mayans thought that holes in the ground, be it caves or lakes, are entrances to a
mythical underground world, Xi baba i think it was. So they thought there would be offerings at the bottom of these pools.
This is all spoken of in the video ...
btw, i can't find anything with the pictures of the caves that are posted in this thread-start, would be nice to have a link to those if possible,
thanks
