Слайд 4Gordon Childe wrote that a civilization is characterized by the invention

of writing, mathematics, monumental architecture, long-distance trade, wheeled carts irrigation technology and some other features.

Слайд 5Like ancient Egypt in Africa, the Mayan civilization in Central America

deserves a special mention. There is no other country that has so many wonders.

Слайд 10The Mayans built stone cities with grand pyramid temples which were

densely populated.

Слайд 12They made a complicated system of basins and reservoirs to collect

water.

Слайд 13Their calendars can be used even nowadays.


Слайд 14They were hunters, gatherers and farmers. The main crops were cereals,

vegetables and fruit. They used the cotton plant to make clothing. Mayans also kept cows, pigs, goats and sheep.

Слайд 15Hunting and fishing allowed them to make their diet more varied.


Слайд 16But still they couldn’t fight against nature, so one of the

reasons that caused their collapse was the intense drought.

Слайд 18The Mayan culture played a great role in the history of

mankind. Even nowadays we can see the sight of its culture. First of all, the descendants of ancient Mayans are not only Mayans who preserved their language and some traditions but some Spanish speaking people of Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras, their calendar-system is very exact though complicated and their writing-system is unique.

Слайд 19The modern religion of Mayans is a mixture of Christianity with

some features of ancient Mayans whose main God was the Sun.
