Over a thousand years ago in the Mesoamerica region the culture that we know as Maya thrived. They had an amazement and intrigued fascination over the technical mastery of their intellectual studies. The Mayan’s history is rich with remarkable human achievements, as well as stories. Some of their most recognizable masterpieces are the Mayan trade network, building Cities, the Mayan number system, and the Mayan calendar.
Located in Central America along the Yucatan Peninsula which included Mexico,Guatemala and Honduras, the classical era was the Mayan civilization. Who lived in isolation from most of the rest of the world and lived in a non-unified government in multiple city states. They were very religious and did many rituals to please their gods. For example, the Religious and Political leaders would pierce themselves with sharp objects to bleed and feed their blood to the Gods. But most importantly, around 900 BCE the civilization decided to leave their successful land to settle in the higher Central American lands.
From the calendars we still use today, to the way we grow crops with farming, ancient civilizations such as the Mayas, the Aztecs, and the Incas influenced and created the way we contribute our skills towards the public. These people’s expertise proves just how they improved the world. The civilizations were advanced for their time based on their early society, their accomplishments, and the remains that are still remembered, as well as viewed to this day. One of the ways that the Mayas, the Aztecs, and the Incas were successful was through their people’s actions in a community.
1.a There are many ways which my childhood was different when compared to a Yucatec Maya childhood. In the first example, the children enjoyed working around the house and would ask for more responsibilities to show their competence in doing work. Growing up, I would do all that I could so I wouldn’t have to do chores and I would never have asked for more work. I would do the least amount of chores that I could while staying out of trouble while the Yucatec children would do as much housework as their parents let them. Even when I did do chores, I didn’t want to and didn’t enjoy doing them.
, changes in shape of the Earth’s orbit and its tilt can also affect climate as that determines the amount of sunlight that reaches the Earth. Similar to what is mentioned in the previous point; the tilt and position of the Earth’s axis affect temperature on very long timescales. This means that it take long for the position and the tilt of the Earth’s axis to change. Therefore, this also fails to explain the recent rapid warming of the

In the Western Hemisphere, no early civilization was more remarkable than the Maya. The Maya are the best-known classical civilizations of Mesoamerica, originating in the state in southeastern Mexico, Yucatan at around 2000 B.C. They rose to importance around A.D. 250 in present-day southern Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, and northern Belize. The Maya civilization was a Mesoamerican civilization developed by the Maya peoples. As being the most remarkable civilization in the Western Hemisphere, the Maya produced an extensive range of structures, and have left a great architectural legacy that places the Maya civilization as one of the great preindustrial civilizations of the world.
The Europeans colonized the Mayans and the Cherokees for similar reasons but both tribes had differences and similarities The Mayans lived in Guatemala, Belize, a portion of El Salvador and Honduras, Yucatán, Campeche and Chiapas. They developed one of the most advanced aboriginal civilizations. The Mayan civilization was divided into three periods: the preclassic (2000 BC–AD 250), the classic (250–900), and the postclassic (900–1500). The Spanish colonization of the Maya began in 152; it took them 170 to fully colonize them. The Cherokee were form the North American, they constituted of the largest politically integrated tribes at the time of the European colonization.
The magnificent Maya are known for some of the most important human achievements in the history of the world. The Maya were a large group of people that lived in the rainforests of Mesoamerica beginning around 3,000 years ago. In this essay I'll be discussing all of the achievements and what made them remarkable, these will be judged as scale, genius, effort, and significance. The Maya had several remarkable achievements which included their trade network, a number system, calendars, and building cities. All are noteworthy however, the way that the Maya built their cities was the most remarkable of all.
With both civilizations being developed around 3500 BC, there are many similarities and differences between the Egyptians and the Mayans. The Egyptians developed their empire in Northeast Africa, which affected the way they farmed and built their cities. The Mayans developed their civilization in MesoAmerica, which influenced their culture differently from the Egyptians. The farming techniques, architecture, and religion were all influenced by the environment they lived in.
America is a big superpower, a force to be reckoned with, and a corporate country. America is built upon freedom and money just like anywhere else. But with the way I think that were going, that’s the only thing America will be in the future. And the American dollar will be worth less and less, and the economy will crash more and more. Like I said earlier America is a corporate country based upon cash.
As a civilization in the jungle, the Maya are well known for their architecture, art, monumental sculptures, and calendars. The Mayan religious, ritualistic culture is developed and maintained in conjunction of the native people, as well as a communication and ties to the earth and sky. Understanding the Maya people and their religion is similar to understanding the geographical location of the people, and therefore their life source. There is great importance within the items that surrounded them geographically. Products or resources that sustained them as a community, or maintained their health and wellbeing, also created foundations for their religious belief system.
Throughout time civilizations have risen and collapsed. Some were conquered while others simply disappeared. The Egyptian civilization thrived near the Nile River from 3000 B.C. and was later conquered by the Persian Empire around 525 B.C. In the other hand, the Mayan civilization developed in Yucatan Peninsula around 200 B.C., and mysterious disappeared around 900 A.D. However, these two cultures share many factors in common such as developing calendars and building pyramids. Even though civilizations developed in different time periods, they can still have many factors in common such as environment, language, and architecture.
One factor is the sun’s energy levels which has an 11 year cycle of small changes in the intensity. Earth’s tilted axis and rotations also changes the climate because at times, the sun is closer or farther away from certain areas of earth’s surface. Climate change has major effects to our world that a lot of people don’t realize. Global warming is a major threat for the habitat in the Arctic. The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the world because the shiny snow and ice is reflecting more of the sun’s energy but as the ice and snow disappears, the water and rock are absorbing the heat and this is known as the albedo effect.
