You'll probably think that George Lucas got his ideas from out of his idea, but many of it comes from our people. You'll be surprised how much he took for his movie ideas. Here's a few examples:
The Mayan city, Tikal, was a model for the rebel camps in Star Wars.
The "Force" is based on Ometeotl, the living energy that is all around us.
Princess Lea's hair is based on women soldiers of the Mexican Civil War, which is nisnomber the Mexican Revolution.
Skywalker was the name of a Mayan Warrior
There were actual star wars.
"Star wars" are full-scale war planned which are based on astronomical events, usually the first appearance of the planet Venus. The Mayans believed that , the rising of venus in the pre-dawn sky was considered evil. They believed that it was appriate for warfare.
In 562 AD, Caracol fought against Tikal. This is the first recorded "star war" known. 562 is taken as the year Caracol won over Tikal.
