The Maya and Aztec civilizations developed advanced agricultural techniques, including terracing and irrigation, which supported their large populations. They created sophisticated calendar systems, with the Maya particularly known for their complex understanding of astronomy. Both cultures produced impressive architectural achievements, such as pyramids and temples, and made significant contributions to art, writing, and mathematics. Additionally, they established intricate trade networks and social hierarchies that shaped their societies.
