How did science and technology lead to the growth of Mayan influence?

Answer 1

Traces of Mayan civilization have been found 1700 BC. This is the only American Civilization which started recording their history that's why we can trace back how technology impacted them. They specialized in developing giant buildings and geographic settings. Stone technology can truly be referred to Mayans. Mainly Mayans utilized technology for agriculture, irrigation and construction tasks.

Answer 2

Remarkably, the ancient Maya managed to build elaborate temples and great cities without what we would consider to be essential tools: metal and the wheel. However, they did use a number of other "modern" innovations and tools, especially in the decorative arts. For example, they built complicated looms for weaving cloth and devised a rainbow of glittery paints made from mica, a mineral that still has technological uses today.

Until recently, people believed that vulcanization-combining rubber with other materials to make it more durable-was discovered by the American (fromConnecticut) Charles Goodyear in the 19th century. However, historians now think that the Maya were producing rubber products about 3,000 years before Goodyear received his patent in 1843.

How did they do it? Researchers believe that the Maya discovered this process accidentally, during a religious ritual in which they combined the rubber tree and the morning-glory plant. Once they realized how strong and versatile this new material was, the Maya began to use it in a variety of ways: to make water-resistant cloth, glue, bindings for books, figurines and the large rubber balls used in the ritual game known as pokatok.

Before they were Mayas. All humans use thousands of technologies every day of their lives and no human has ever lived that did not use thousands of technologies every day of their lives.
