Full History of Maya in Central America
The Maya civilization has developed within the Mesoamerican cultural area, covering a region that extends south to Central America from northern Mexico.
The history of the Maya civilization is divided into three principal periods: the Preclassic, Classic, and Postclassic periods.
1. Maya Preclassic period (1800 BC - 250 AD)
In the Preclassic period, the Maya began their first civilization. Settlements were established in the Pacific Coast region of Soconusco around 1800 BC, and they already cultivated the staple crops of maize, beans, squash, and chili pepper.
2. Maya Classic period (c. 250–900 AD)
This was largely defined as the golden age of the Maya Empire. Classic Maya civilization grew to some 40 cities, each of which held a population of between 5,000 and 50,000 people. The Maya po...

Why did the Maya civilization collapse?
In our final animated historical documentary on the Maya civilization we describe the reasons for its collapse, covering the societal, political, environmental reasons and the Spanish invasion of the region. By the early 8th century the Maya civilization was at its zenith. Building and maintaining cities of such scale that future explorers hypothesized that they must have been built by lost tribes of Israel or the Phoenicians. But only 150 years later the flourishing Classic Maya civilization had crumbled, undergoing one of the most devastating social and demographic upheavals in human history. Yet the Maya wouldn’t succumb to Spanish control until 1697, nearly 200 years after the Aztecs and Inca. The great collapse and fall of the Maya are a story of change, triumph and tragedy, where anc...

Facts About The Ancient Maya
Forget the movie Apocalypto – the real Mayans of pre-Colombian America were more than stone pyramids and bloody rituals. From about 200 until the so-called “Mayan collapse” around 900 CE, the Maya people were at the height of their influence. They were one of many civilizations – like the Olmecs and the Aztecs – that animated Mesoamerica before the arrival of European colonizers.
Clustered around the Yucatán peninsula, Maya culture was layered and complex, filled with masterful artwork, political networks, and thriving cities. They even had a written language that is preserved in artwork and bark-bound codex books.

In the past decade or two, there has been an upsurge of interest about the Maya, their history, civilization, and culture. There have been more documentaries and fiction movies, books and stories about them. This was partly fueled by the mythical Maya prediction of the end of the world in 2012, which for a short period of time put this civilization under the media spotlight. But there is much more to their culture than the common misconception about their calendar. And for a long time before the Maya caught the eyes of the wider population, archeologists and historians did their best to uncover and piece together the complete story about the Maya civilization.

The Maya civilization has developed within the Mesoamerican cultural area, covering a region that extends south to Central America from northern Mexico.
The history of the Maya civilization is divided into three principal periods: the Preclassic, Classic, and Postclassic periods.
1. Maya Preclassic period (1800 BC - 250 AD)
In the Preclassic period, the Maya began their first civilization. Settlements were established in the Pacific Coast region of Soconusco around 1800 BC, and they already cultivated the staple crops of maize, beans, squash, and chili pepper.
2. Maya Classic period (c. 250–900 AD)
This was largely defined as the golden age of the Maya Empire. Classic Maya civilization grew to some 40 cities, each of which held a population of between 5,000 and 50,000 people. The Maya population may have reached a peak of 2,000,000.
The central Maya region suffered a major political breakdown during the 9th century AD, marked by the destruction of cities, the end of dynasties, and a change in movement towards the north. Some evidence claimed that Mayan farming methods such as irrigation and terracing are really advanced.
3. Maya Postclassic period (950- 1539 AD)
Although much reduced, a significant Maya presence remained into the Postclassic period after the abandonment of the major Classic period cities; the population was particularly concentrated near permanent water sources. After the rapid collapse of Chichen Itza, the Maya region lacked a dominant power until the rise of the city of Mayapan in the 12th century.
Mysterious Decline of the Maya
Maya civilization started to collapse with the abandonment of many Classic cities from the late eighth through the end of the ninth century. We couldn’t certify what is the reason, however, there are some premises. Some scholars argue that maybe the Maya ran out of resources and failed to sustain a large population in the 9th century.
Maya Culture
Some of the most extraordinary masterpieces of the Classic Maya were their temples and palaces in a stepped pyramid shape, decorated with elaborate reliefs and inscriptions. The Maya are also respected for being the master of mathematics and astronomy, including the use of the zero and the development of complex calendar systems like the Calendar Round.

In the Preclassic period, the Maya began their first civilization. Settlements were established in the Pacific Coast region of Soconusco around 1800 BC, and they already cultivated the staple crops of maize, beans, squash, and chili pepper.
2. Maya Classic period (c. 250–900 AD)
This was largely defined as the golden age of the Maya Empire. Classic Maya civilization grew to some 40 cities, each of which held a population of between 5,000 and 50,000 people. The Maya population may have reached a peak of 2,000,000.
The central Maya region suffered a major political breakdown during the 9th century AD, marked by the destruction of cities, the end of dynasties, and a change in movement towards the north. Some evidence claimed that Mayan farming methods such as irrigation and terracing are really advanced.
3. Maya Postclassic period (950- 1539 AD)
Although much reduced, a significant Maya presence remained into the Postclassic period after the abandonment of the major Classic period cities; the population was particularly concentrated near permanent water sources. After the rapid collapse of Chichen Itza, the Maya region lacked a dominant power until the rise of the city of Mayapan in the 12th century.
Mysterious Decline of the Maya
Maya civilization started to collapse with the abandonment of many Classic cities from the late eighth through the end of the ninth century. We couldn’t certify what is the reason, however, there are some premises. Some scholars argue that maybe the Maya ran out of resources and failed to sustain a large population in the 9th century.
Maya Culture
Some of the most extraordinary masterpieces of the Classic Maya were their temples and palaces in a stepped pyramid shape, decorated with elaborate reliefs and inscriptions. The Maya are also respected for being the master of mathematics and astronomy, including the use of the zero and the development of complex calendar systems like the Calendar Round.

In our final animated historical documentary on the Maya civilization we describe the reasons for its collapse, covering the societal, political, environmental reasons and the Spanish invasion of the region. By the early 8th century the Maya civilization was at its zenith. Building and maintaining cities of such scale that future explorers hypothesized that they must have been built by lost tribes of Israel or the Phoenicians. But only 150 years later the flourishing Classic Maya civilization had crumbled, undergoing one of the most devastating social and demographic upheavals in human history. Yet the Maya wouldn’t succumb to Spanish control until 1697, nearly 200 years after the Aztecs and Inca. The great collapse and fall of the Maya are a story of change, triumph and tragedy, where ancient thrones will be shattered but from them new powers will emerge.

Forget the movie Apocalypto – the real Mayans of pre-Colombian America were more than stone pyramids and bloody rituals. From about 200 until the so-called “Mayan collapse” around 900 CE, the Maya people were at the height of their influence. They were one of many civilizations – like the Olmecs and the Aztecs – that animated Mesoamerica before the arrival of European colonizers.
Clustered around the Yucatán peninsula, Maya culture was layered and complex, filled with masterful artwork, political networks, and thriving cities. They even had a written language that is preserved in artwork and bark-bound codex books.
