Maya civilization (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

A-The Maya civilization is a Mesoamerican civilization, noted for its spectacular art, monumental architecture, and sophisticated mathematical and astronomical systems. This civilization had established during the Preclassic period. It reached its apogee of development during the Classic period, and continued throughout the Postclassic period until the arrival of the Spanish. At its peak, it was one of the most densely populated areas. It was also one of the most culturally dynamic societies in the world.

B-The Maya civilization shares many features with other Mesoamerican civilizations. It happened as a consequence of the high degree of interaction and cultural diffusion that characterized the region. Advances- such as writing and the calendar- did not originate with the Maya; however, their civilization fully developed them. Maya influence can be detected as far as central Mexico, more than 1000 km from the Maya area. Many outside influences are found in Maya art and architecture, which are the result of trade and cultural exchange rather than direct external conquest.
