Mayans

what was the mayans physical enviroment

They were most successful in agriculture. :)

They wowed everyone with their awesome predictions and made everyone think that the world is going to end on12 December 2012. Though scientists have admitted that there was a calculation error of 50 to 100 years between their calender and our calender

The orientals that arrived in Nicaragua in 1314bc first honored Volcano Cosiguina as the mountain of God and then went north up river to found Copan in 1313bc. This is what genesis chronology proves because of the specific Venus dates the Maya use, namely 1770bc from Egypt and 1625bc from Babylon. Their chronology uses the postFlood 3744 haab, The Noahs 1344 haab which added to 2256am makes 1770bc their Babylonian shar 3600. They also shrink the 1600 year span from Noahs Flood 3114bc to the Exodus comet 1514bc down to 1600 tun which the Egyptian say is 1577 Julian years from 3090-1513bc. (1440 Julian = 1461 tun, and 137 Julian = 139 tun) Thus Egyptian 3090-1513bc becomes Mayan 3113-1513bc shrunk 23 years to be 3113-1536bc. Although i admit as 3114-1537bc it is 100 years before Chinese 1437bc as century markers. (All my answers are given as how the world spread according to Genesis math and astronomy and calendars.)

The answer is yes, they were conquered after the Inca in 1546.The Inca were conquered in 1533 by the Spanish.

They are called codices, which is the correct term for any book that isn't a scroll

Mayan girls learnt about how to do chores so when they are older they can run their own household

First, they started fighting against each other, but then, they started to move northward and clashed with the Toltecs. Finally, they also fought against the Spanish

Maya get from the Highlands and lowlands of Mesoamerica is that if you go more then ( 4, 000) you could die and the lowland is only up to ( 200) that is not that much.

The Aztecs were alive from approximately 1325-1521 AD.

~Hope that helped!!!!

mi don't know why math have to be so hard sometimes

The second largest Mayan city is copan By:gboy

Hunab Ku is the supreme god of Maya mythology.

Yes, for hundreds of years the Mayans used their only fresh water source as a kind of 'dump' for their sacrifices and corpses.

they usealliancesto build their empire by using them to agree to other city-states

As much as I know about your mom - alott !!

The Maya occupied a vast area covering southeast Mexico and the Central American countries of Guatemala, Belize, Honduras and El Salvador.

As civilization dawned on Americas, people shifted from old ways of hunting and gathering and embraced improved ways of doing agriculture and rearing livestock. They also adopted improved cultural systems and leadership styles in communities.

There is no direct answer to that, for the reason that the Maya were not one state, like the Aztecs. Instead, there loads of smaller kingdoms, all fighting for power, resources and control of the trade routes. The most famous of the Mayan kings was K'inich Janaab Pakal (otherwise known as Pakal the Great), who ruled the city of Palenque from 603AD to 671 AD. His tomb was found in 1952 by Alberto Ruz Lhuillier, a Mexican Archaeologist.

Autodesk Corporation's Maya is a 3D Modeling and Rendering program, similar to Lightwave, 3DS Max, Pixar's Renderman, and other professional 3D programs. Along with Renderman, it is considered one of the top programs in its class in the world, and arguably one of the top program in its class in the world. Many pictures have received Academy Awards for Visual Effects because their artists used Maya for the film. One of the most recent examples is the Oscar winning "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" - it used Maya for its visual effects throughout the picture. King Kong was also the beneficiary of effects created by Maya.

In addition to 3D work, Maya is also used for Matte painting. Matte paintings are typically used in digital work for backgrounds.

Many special effects companies use Maya. More notable examples are Lucas film's Industrial Light and Magic, and Matte World Digital.

Autodesk has won a total of 5 Oscars itself from the Academy for significant contibutions to the Motion Picture industry. Last year, it won the Scientific and Technical Oscar for Maya's new Fluid Effects, which allow graphic artists to realistically design better fluid and gas effects on film.

Autodesk's achievements with Maya are not limited to movies - it has also received many awards from the Television and Broadcasting industries. As another person here pointed out, it is also used in the Gaming Industry for 3D game modeling and effects.

Maya is not on the list of cheap programs, even if you're a student. The full version runs close to $2000 or more depending on the version and what you get with it. However, you can download a trial version from the Autodesk site.

Simply put, it is not for the beginner or casual user. It is for those who are professional artists, working at the top of their craft. The same can be said for Renderman, as it has been used by Pixar Animation to create its Oscar winning movies over the years. Many people don't realize that Pixar was originally a Computer company started by George Lucas.

Many people who aren't familiar with 3D techniques start out with Autodesk's 3DS Max, a good program in its own right. While not as powerful as Maya, it does prepare users for the jump to the more complex Maya program.

While Maya isn't for beginners, there are many good training programs available if you're not going to get it in college. One of the better courses is at Lynda.com, which has online courses for most of the top media programs, including Adobe, Autodesk, Macromedia (before the merger - they still have the old courses available) and many programming language courses as well. Annual subscription runs about $400. So if you can swing the cash for Maya, training is accessible. Lynda.com now offers certification in each course completed as well.

Maya also needs pretty powerful equipment to run. Most notebooks or other systems with common ATI Radeon or NVIDIA GeForce chipsets aren't recommended for the 3D processing capability that Maya requires. The Autodesk site has specific requirements for systems to run Maya, and while they're not that steep, they're not that cheap either.

it started in 400BC and began to collapse in 900AD

Information recently gathered by archaeologists from the University of Texas seem to indicate that a series of volcanic eruptions may have scattered the Mayan civilization. Scattered them to the point of almost extinction.

By around 900 A.D., many Maya city-states in the southern lowlands, particularly in present-day Guatemala, experienced a significant decline, leading to a population shift. Some Maya people moved to the northern regions, including the Yucatán Peninsula, where cities like Chichen Itza and Uxmal became prominent. This migration was likely influenced by factors such as drought, resource depletion, and social upheaval.

The Mayans were skilled road builders and they were able to create one of the most advanced road systems.
