Well its not the sea it is the land that lies south of North America and north of South America. The answer to this question is Mesoamerica. Mesoamerica is the land between North America and South America. Many great civilizations began in Middle America. Following are some of these civilizations: The Olmecs, The Maya, The Aztecs, and The Inca. Up until 25,000 years ago, no humans lived in the Americas. North America and South America are considered the Americas. There are different theories about how humans made their way to the Americas. One theory is that during the last Ice Age, humans looking for food crossed a frozen piece of land from Asia to Alaska. This frozen piece of land was like a land bridge over the Bering Strait.

Once man found his way to the Americas, he followed the food. That is how man went down through North America and into South America. Once the Ice Age ended, people in the Americas had to develop different ways to get food. People in the area that is now Mexico City developed farming. Farming spread throughout the Americas. One of the most important crops was maize, which is now called corn. Then the people of the Americas developed skills in pottery making and weaving. Later, they started growing peanuts, tomatoes and potatoes. The geography of Mesoamerica varies greatly. There are grand rivers and vast mountain ranges. There are volcanoes and islands. The land of Mesoamerica lies south of North America and north of South America. Often times, Mesoamerica is referred to as Middle America because of its location in the middle of North and South America.
