They developed extensive writing systems
Mayas used pictures called hieroglyphics. They represent sounds, and with them any words in the Maya language could be written. Their writing system consisted of 800 symbols or Glyphs. From these, 700 represented whole words, they look like objects they represent, and 100 were syllable signs, used to spell out a word, syllable by syllable.
I know the Inca did not have a writing system, but they did have a speaking language/system. I do not know about the Mayas and the Aztecs. I am researching them.

The Caribs were known as skilled warriors and predominantly inhabited the Caribbean islands, while the Mayas were known for their advanced civilization in Mesoamerica. The Caribs were more nomadic and lived in small villages, whereas the Mayas built large, complex cities with impressive architecture. Additionally, the Mayas were known for their hieroglyphic writing system and advanced knowledge in mathematics and astronomy.
The Mayas
The Maya used a complex writing system called hieroglyphics, where they combined symbols and pictures to represent words and ideas. They recorded information on stelae, inscriptions on buildings, and codices made from fig bark paper. These records documented historical events, genealogies, astrological observations, and religious practices.
