In every successful ancient civilization, there is always a driving force that cultivates and educates their society. 4,000 years ago, the Maya dominated regions of South America in what is now known as Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Belize, and Guatemala. The Maya consisted of several city-states that shared language, religion, and traditions. They became rich thanks to the domestication of farmers, skilled potters, weavers, architects and painters; they were also one of the most developed civilizations in the entire world regarding their logical development, especially mathematics, medicine and astronomy. Their lifestyle appears to be less aggressive and more imaginative than other great civilizations of this period. It seems that the Mayan religions were composed of thirteen heavens and nine underworlds ruled by the nine lords of the nights. Apparently, there was a conflict between the gods of heaven and those of the underworld. Because we live in a different time, over the years we have learned about the Mayans, their amazing inventions, and the history they shaped in many different ways. They amazed us how they build cities with huge sand temples and pyramids. Maya buildings were decorated with impressed friezes and upper combs of mineral and stucco. With large amounts of sandstone and flint displays and concrete were easily formed. Mayan cities were built by being divided into neighborhoods by two avenues that intersected at a precise angle. The roofs were uniform and made of cedar beams coated with mortar. The walls were plastered and decorated with great deities and other fabulous elements. Their stoneware was made in a wide variety of shapes and jeweled with complex scenes. The Mayans are also... the center of the card... the part of America with fertile soil to produce crops. These contributions are brought to mind the history of the world and give us an idea of how they survived and how they formed an important part of our world. How did the Mayan empire end? Well, there are many reasons why the Mayan Empire ended, the collapse of the Mayans is one of the excessive mysteries of history. One of the greatest cultures of the early Americas essentially fell into destruction in a very short period of time. Huge cities like Tikal had no restrictions, and Mayan stonemasons stopped building temples. The dates are not in doubt: glyphs decoded at several sites show a successful culture in the 9th century AD, but the record remains strangely silent after the last detailed date on a Mayan stela, 904 AD Maya, but little agreement among specialists.
