Mayans

The ball should land in green 5.26% of the time, red 47.37% of the time, and black 47.37% of the time.

The Maya shared their technology with other Mayan groups when it came to agriculture and other sciences such as dentistry and architecture (buildings, bridges), astronomy, religion and medicine. They were also good business traders, having built sophisticated roadways over long distances buying and selling and doing other commerce. This is known to be true because of the "money" they used-chocolate! There are many times, however, when the records show one Mayan group or city fighting with another over resources; small kingdoms throughout the Yucatan were competing with one another for power and control over all city/states (much like early Greece!). The Maya that lived near volcanic outcroppings of Obsidian were usually among the winners of these contests, for they bore weapons made of volcanic glass sporting an edge sharper than that of today's surgical steel! -InThree21

Was communal and hunter-gatherer with little need for commerce until the Europeans showed up with goods they wanted.

The british fought on one side and the french and indians fought on the other side. The colonists fought on the british side, and got andgry when the proclamation of 1763 was passed: it stated that the colonists did not have access to the other dside of the Ohio river valley, only the native americans who fought along with the conlonists and the british. my name is Jayda Alfred i am 10 years old and i just blew your mind.

The first humans to inhabit the Yucatan peninsula are traced up to 12,000 years ago. The people that settled down on such lands and eventually became the Maya civilization, began the process of "cultural evolution" some 3,000 years ago.

The ball's used in the traditional Mayan ball game were made from rubber which they had tapped from the nearby trees.

"City of Dawn" because is faces the sunrise.

There was no writing so they didn't keep records. What we know about them comes from the things they built, artifacts, and the stone work they created.

• The mayan's made the game last by using only their hips, heads, arms, and butts, but usually didn't use their heads. Sometimes the game went on for days or even weeks. The losing team was considered evil and was sacrificed after the game ended.

The Mayans had hot weather.

Most of the Mayan people were farmers. The main staple of their diet was corn also known as maize. Other things that they grew were beans, squash, avocado pear, avocado, sweet potato, guava, chili peppers, cocoa beans, vanilla beans, papaya and tomatoes. They would also eat fruits from trees.

The Mayans used a farming technique called milpa, also known as slash and burn. They would clear the land by cutting down and burning all of the foliage in the spring before the summer rains. Then they would plant their crops by poking digging sticks into the ground and planting the seeds in the holes. The slash and burn technique means that the fields would only be fertile for a few years. The Mayans practiced crop rotation to get more growing seasons out of the field.

Another farming technique used by the Mayans was terracing. They would build stone walls to level out fields in mountainous areas.

Most of the plants grown by the Mayans were for food. Other plants were grown to make dyes for clothing and chewing gum from the Sapodilla tree. The Mayans also grew plants to make medicines to heal people. They would cut down timber from the jungle to build houses and temples.

In addition to farming the Mayans raised dogs, turkeys and ducks for food. They also used the feathers from the turkeys and ducks for clothes. The Mayans raised bees to make honey. In the wild they hunted deer, rabbits, boar, armadillos and they fished. They also ate fish, turtles, iguanas and insects. The Mayans used every part of the animal for food, clothing and tools. This is very similar to the Native Americans in our country.

The main part of the Mayans diet was corn or maize. The woman would grind the corn into flour and then make a paste. Then they baked it into a tortilla, similar to a taco shell.

The Mayan family all lived together. The men farmed and hunted. The women would cook and weave. The children helped out their mothers with the chores and only went to school if they came from a noble family.

The Mayans had a class system of people, which meant that the people at the top governed over the people at the bottom. At the top were the nobles with the King being the most powerful. The King's power was hereditary which means that the oldest son would become the King when he died. The King appointed the other people. The next most powerful were the priests who helped the king and also lead religious ceremonies. The next level of people was the commoners. Most people were in this commoner category and were farmers. The bottom of the system was the slaves. Slaves were caught during wars or if people broke a law like stealing they would become a slave.

Although I do not know the exact answer to this question I can give you some help: A thrilling short story titled THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME by Richard Connell gives a brief description of the main character, Rainsford, building a Malay Man Catcher for the evil hunter, Zaroff.

no they didn't. the Olmec did but the Olmec were ancestor's of the Maya.

The Mayans didn't vanish. They moved all over, partly into what is now Mexico and South America. They also moved northward, the Mayan's history is clouded by the lack of information and the understanding of what is available. The Mayan civilization had cycles of life each consisted of I believe 533 years or something like that. Their belief was that each 1000 years a "new" world or cycle would begin. Each cycle brought different elements of life such as disaster, great bounty etc... This is why the Mayan calender ends December 21, 2012. The 5,000 year cycle starts again or so it's believed.

No, the Mayans were a different and earlier people than the Aztecs, though they were to have a major influence on Astec culture

The Mayan people lived in Central America, present day southern Mexican states Guatemala, Belize and El Salvador. This means winters did not reach temperatures that would "snow in" these villages.
