A long drought
There have been many theories over the years as to why the Mayan civilization collapsed. Some of those theories are overhunting, drought, and alien invasion.
The Mayan civilization experienced a gradual decline between the 8th and 10th centuries, with significant population decreases and the abandonment of major city-states in the southern lowlands. Factors contributing to this decline included environmental stress, such as drought, as well as social unrest and warfare. By the time the Spanish arrived in the 16th century, many Mayan cities were already in decline, but the civilization itself persisted in various forms, particularly in the northern regions. The collapse is often viewed as a complex interplay of multiple interrelated factors rather than a singular event.
