Mayans

They didn't have a big enough story in their culture

Native americans. they dont have a name that is good enough to write

Inca Empire was the largest pre- Columbian empire and was located in Western and Northwestern South America. The empire consisted of areas of modern day Peru, Chile, Ecuador, Argentina, Colombia and Bolivia.

The tropical rain forest provides most of their basic needs.It gives them food,water,medicines, and shelter.

Mayans still exist today the empire fell due to a number of reasons. Disease wiped out thousands when the Spanish arrived. After that the empire couldn't prosper with so many leaving and dying. The amount of territory it occupied was hard to maintain. Many Mayans were forced into Catholic missions. The structure of Mayan society is drastically different compared to its former glory but many of the traditions and language is still the same. So they didn't all disappear

Mayan kings sacrificed their own blood to please the gods and based their economy on religion

The Pueblo Indians are known for their specific type of architecture. They built houses in cliff sides. Not just caves, but carved communities into cliffs that were only accessible by retractable ladders.

In ancient Mayan culture, a 'chultun' (plural chultunesor chultunob) was an underground water storage and collecting chamber. The name is thought to be derived from Chulub, 'rain,' and Tun, 'stone.'

they cooked for living and the parents did a lot of work the kids played or even sometimes helped their parents

First of all, The Aztecs were the only of the three that sacrificed human hearts to their gods, while the Incas were the only civilization of the time to have taught the practice of brain surgery. Although they used brain surgery, they were only successful about 25% of the time, which is still better than no success at all. The Incas also accumulated the largest empire of the three.

The Mayans Lasted Longer.

Being a Maya, not a mayan, (that's our writing system), I would know. We have semi-dark skin, in between dark and light brown. All Maya have black hair, and All Maya have brown eyes. Only rarely will you see a Maya that doesn't fit these specifications. If you are referring to ancient Maya, they looked exactly like this except for one thing: they had a dent in their forehead carefully placed that enhanced intelligence, giving them an extremely high I.Q.

When Hernando Cortez entered the capital city of the Aztecs, Tenochtitlan, the residents believed that he was one of their gods, Quetzalcoatl, come back to rule them again. Even the Aztec king knelt before him.

they had different calendar, the knew different languages, etc...

The Vikings, about 1000 years ago.

The Mayans made both an alphabet and a Calendar so we could keep track of when the world is going to end or start. The Mayan calendar ends 2012. Some of us are generation X, some are Y. When Generation "Z" is over, the world will end. 2012.

Mayan Culture extended from Nicaragua into the Yucatan of Mexico. Their empire was in Central America. The Mayans never had an empire like the Incas or Aztecs. Instead they organized into city states like the ancient Greeks. Many archaeologists believe that the Mayans were at their peak from 300 AD to 900 AD. These dates, however, remain controversial.

hi i like food :)

The Mayans practiced early forms of water management. Since underground water was located over 500 feet deep, they depended mainly on rainwater for their agricultural needs. During the time of year that rain fell, it would fill swampy areas called bajos. The Mayans would dig tranches and canals to flow water from the bajos to the crops for use. Due to the rockiness of the soil, this was a very labor intensive process.

The Mayan farmers also would heap mud in the swampy areas to make raised farming beds right in the water. This decreased the amount of water that needed to be transferred to the plants, as the ground moisture was already high.

Cisterns were also built to collect rainwater and to store water collected from natural wells that were found in some areas of the Yukatan.

There is no evidence that they did. However apparently the soft tissue of the foreskin did serve as a convenient place for piercing in order to collect the blood required in religious ceremony.
