[Aztlan] "The Maya had no Wheel...."

[D. M. Urquidi]

  You are forgetting the processionals which may have only used feet and palaquins as noted on some of the monuments. Such short roads would be very necessary for such ceremonials movements.  But not with wheels.

I submit that the existence of paved sacbeob infers the very

wheeled means of transportation?
