Mayans

I believe that you are thinking of an Apache Indian, not a patchy Indian. The Apache tribe has had some historical importance.

The Mayan calendar ends on that date, and simply because a calendar of human conception "ends" on a certain day, does not mean that a great deal of people will NOT live after 12/21/2012. Ask any anthropologist regarding this question, and he will explain to you also that they believed there will be a "new age" after this date, not the destruction of the earth. Please discourage any myths.

Why did the Maya disappear is a question that has baffled historians for years. Because the Maya disappeared long ago no one will ever know for sure what happened to them. Many theories exist but none are definitely true.

In the PostClassic period the Maya abandoned many of the cities in the south such as Palenque and Tikal and they migrated northward to settle Uxmal. Then Uxmal was abandoned and Chitchen Itza was settled and ultimately conquered by the people of Mayapan. Mayapan ultimately fell to the Spaniards who tried to convert the people to Christianity and forced many to become slaves. Never-the-less the pattern existed that the cities would be settled and ultimately abandoned.

Some of the theories are that over population may have caused people to move because there was not be enough food for everyone. The Maya were a farming people and the farmland would not be fertilized like today. The farmland may have not produced as well and caused a famine and thus forced the Mayans to move to more fertile lands. Some historians have also said that droughts may have caused the people to move-since they would have to find land with more water to drink and farm with. Other people have suggested reasons such as climatic changes, earth quakes, and sickness or epidemics. One other big reason may have been warfare from neighboring cities or invaders from other countries. No one will ever know for sure why the Mayans abandoned their cities, but we do know that the ruins are in the jungles with the buildings standing. And the Mayans may have moved for any number of combinations of the reasons listed above. The Mayans were a wonderful civilization and it is horrible that they collapsed. Because the Mayans fell apart so many years ago, no one will ever know why they disappeared. It is mystery that we will never know how to solve.

of course they fought about land mostly When Spain came over here they came and took almost everything up to florida

There is now plenty of evidence for Inca and pre-Inca peoples using balsa and reed rafts and boats with sails, some of which were used as trade vessels into Panama and even Western Mexico (as borne out by metallurgical imports). Sacred (pink) shells and metal were the main cargoes. Indeed, Pizarro encountered these. Apparently outlying islands (e.g. the Galapagos) were visited, and debate continues as to whether sailing technology was introduced via Polynesians or evolved independently. The Chimu and Moche seem to have used large reed vessels to transport goods between their river valleys, but it is not certain they used sails.

The question with Mayan/ Aztec seafaring is more complex, as to date there is no firm evidence for sails though some very large ocean-going dugout canoes traded and travelled around the Gulf of Mexico - especially of the Chontal Mayans - and the Caribs seem to have had outrigger canoes. If sails were ever used in these areas, we must assume they were a very late introduction (probably from the Incas).

we are not realy sure but they halped the Olmacs when they got there

yes very i came bk from there today it is very friendly and relly nice i recommend it highly

The Mayas came 300 years before the Aztecs

They did things.

Warriors were crucial to the Mayan way of life as they played a key role in protecting their city-states and expanding their territory through warfare. Their prowess in battle ensured the security of resources, trade routes, and agricultural lands, which were vital for the survival and prosperity of their communities. Additionally, successful warriors gained prestige and social status, often becoming leaders and influencing political decisions within their societies. This warrior culture was deeply intertwined with Mayan religion and cosmology, reinforcing their importance in societal structure and practices.

Well my oppinion on the trading routes of the Mayas were simple and easy to follow just as the rout of the slave trade. The Mayas came from Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, anad mainly Belize.

Joseph McCoy McCoy built a hotel, stockyard, office and bank in a little village along the Union Pacific that was called Abilene, Kansas, and encouraged Texas cattlemen to drive their Longhorn cattle to the railhead there, thus beginning the era of cattle raising in Texas and drive to the railroad for market in Chicago and the east.

They lived in parts of Mexico, near the Yucatan Peninsula. They also lived in parts of Central America.

Mayan leaders, or nobles, enjoyed significant privileges that distinguished them from the general populace. They had access to lavish resources, including fine clothing, jewelry, and elaborate homes, often adorned with artwork and religious symbols. Leaders also wielded considerable political power, making decisions on governance, warfare, and trade, while having the authority to conduct religious ceremonies and rituals, reinforcing their status as mediators between the gods and the people. Additionally, they often received tribute from commoners, further enhancing their wealth and influence within Mayan society.

Aztecs, Hernando Cortes led a small miltary expedition against the Aztecs and their powerful emporer, Montezuma.
