[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Mayan empire was pretty awesome too.  Just sayin.[/quote]

No, thank you.  All that blood and sacrifice.[/quote]

Check your bias

And the Romans were squeaky clean without slavery, gladiators fighting to death, and widespread corruption/ sexual debauchery among their aristocrats who were u fettered by any democratic constraints?

The Mayans were so much more than highly
Contained and ritualized sacrifices -
They developed advanced math/ astrology/ agricultural irrigation/ and more. [/quote]

The Mayans were a huge death cult.  Whatever you want to say about the Roman Empire, good or bad, it wasn't a death cult.[/quote]

Where do you get in-depth knowledge of Mayan history and culture from? Trump campaign trail sound bites?

Try history channel web site or anything with balanced coverage.

The Mayans were around for those ands of years. They were highly accomplished. Many academics believe that their sudden demise happened due to overpopulation as their cities grew faster than their food supplies.

The Mayan Empire, centered in the tropical lowlands of what is now Guatemala, reached the peak of its power and influence around the sixth century A.D. The Maya excelled at agriculture, pottery, writing, calendars and mathematics, and left behind an astonishing amount of impressive architecture and symbolic artwork. Most of the great stone cities of the Maya were abandoned by A.D. 900
