While the Spanish conquistadors thought that they would find gold, the Mayan lands did not have much, not anything like the Incas or Aztecs. The Mayans did trade with civilizations that had gold, but their main trade goods were things like salt, obsidian, jade, and some fruit that I can't think of...
I seem to recall that the gold found in the Chichen Itza was Panamanian.
Also, in reference to the previous answer, the 'ruler' was not peeing blood, usually a priest or high rank pieced a part of his body, (usually tongue, ears, lips, or penis) and gave his blood as an offering.
Most people were buried in graves, facing West or North (I think), while high ranked people were buried in tombs. They were buried with an ear of corn and a small bead. Also usually with something red to give pigment as red was the color or death and rebirth.
