Ancient Mayan People Mexico


Mayan People	Mayan people have their own traditions, cultures, and historical identity. They inhabits the Mexican states of Quintana Roo, Yucatán, Campeche, Tabasco, and Chiapas, and in the Central American countries of Belize, Guatemala, and the western portions of Honduras and El Salvador. They built pyramids, palaces, and highways; they painted, drew, and sculpted; they wove clothing, made feather ornaments, organized complex societies, and reflected on the universe. They invented things on their own some very similar to what had been produced in the oldest African or Asian civilizations, and some very different. Particularly in the area of religion, the beliefs were amazingly similar to the ones we know best, so much so that the autonomous development of American civilizations allows us to evaluate all the hypotheses posed about the evolution of cultures in general. They developed astronomy, calendar systems and writing.
