For all practical purposes the Mayan empire was not in existence when Spain sent its explorers and conquistadors to the New World. Many traces of the past glories of the Mayan civilization exist to this day. Yet, there is not 100% consensus as to why their empire fell apart many years before 1492.
The Mayan civilization was located primarily on the Yucatan Peninsula.

It was some 3500 years old. When the last Mayan cities fell to Spanish invaders, they were a civilization 3700 years old: Tayasal and Zacpeten were the last Mayan cities to be subdued, on 1697.

Last year I learned about an ancient Mexican civilization that declined due to deforestation. I learned that it was a major city that used wood to cover their structures. I think it was around the Texcoco lake in the valley of Mexico, but I'm not sure about that. I know the Mayan civilization fell due to deforestation, but that's not the one I'm talking about. Anything will help. Thank you.

No. Mayan civilization rose and fell well before the creation of modern Mexico (2000 BC - 250 AD), and included cities among present-day Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras and El Salvador. However, after the fall of that civilization, the Mayan ethnic group survived and many of these countries include people with such ancestry.
