"Clint" wrote in message ... How do the Mayan ruins in Belize and Honduras compare with Chitzen Itza in Mexico? They are from two separate civilizations, or eras, of Mayan development. Since the Mayans practiced slash and burn agriculture in tropical forests, the land depleted eventually and there was a migration northward. The final stage of Mayan pre-Columbian civilization was in Yucatan. The architecture is distinct from that of Copan and Tikal and the ruins in El Salvador. |
