It depends on what time period your thinking of for the Mayans. People got taller over time but most of them were the height of an average woman today.

No, the Mayan people were not always short. The average height of the Maya people during the Pre-Columbian era was similar to that of other contemporary civilizations. Factors such as nutrition and overall health may have played a role in determining height, and variations in height among individuals and populations are normal.
